Tired of quoting every social post and brochure update?

Most UK teams with regular design needs bounce between per-job quotes, freelancers who do not know their brand, and DIY tools that look like everyone else.

Without a design subscription

With the Unlimited Desk

A new quote and re-brief for every logo tweak, flyer or social graphic
One fixed monthly retainer, queue as many jobs as you need
Different freelancers, none of them remember your fonts or tone

What it is

One design studio, on a monthly retainer

An unlimited graphic design service for unlimited graphic design in the UK, on a fixed monthly retainer. Instead of quoting every logo tweak, social post or brochure, you queue as many jobs as you need. We work through them in order, with transparent, dedicated hours and no surprise invoices.

It replaces the usual juggle of separate suppliers: one Nottingham studio covering branding, digital and web design and print. Creative director Lewis oversees every job so your brand stays consistent across channels.

Unlimited graphic design FAQs

How much does unlimited graphic design cost?

From £540/month for 10 dedicated hours (Standard), £950/month for 20 hours (Professional) or £1,350/month for 30 hours (Premium). Custom packages are available, sign up or enquire for details.

What does unlimited mean?

Unlimited projects in your queue each month and unlimited revisions on each job. We work through requests in order within your hourly allowance.

What design work is included?

Branding, digital, social, web UI, presentations, print and documents, plus motion, video graphics and light front-end support when the job needs it. Logos, brochures, flyers, business cards, ads, packaging and more all go in the same queue. If you are unsure, ask before you subscribe.

How do I track my hours?

Your client portal includes a timesheet showing hours used per project. We warn you before you reach your monthly allowance.

Is there a minimum contract?

Most design subscriptions ask for a rolling commitment, ours run for an initial three-month period, then move to a 6, 9 or 12 month agreement tailored to your usage.

Will I always work with the same studio?

Yes. Creative director Lewis oversees every retainer project so your brand stays consistent across channels.

How is this different from other unlimited graphic design services?

Most unlimited graphic design services work on a flat monthly fee with a queued request model, similar to the Unlimited Desk. Where we differ is breadth and oversight: brand, web UI, social and print from one Nottingham studio, with creative director Lewis on every retainer job, not a rotating offshore queue. We will not claim to be the best unlimited graphic design service for every business, but for UK SMEs who want consistency without hiring in-house, a graphic design subscription here replaces per-project quoting.

Can I use this alongside a website project?

Yes. Many clients start with a bespoke website, then move to the Unlimited Desk for ongoing marketing and print.
