how we work
Our way of working. And why it works.
Closer by Design:
Closer to you.
Closer to the solution.
At papermonkey, we believe the best ideas come when you get closer. Closer to your brief. Closer to your audience. Closer to the outcome that really matters.
That’s why we call our way of working Closer by Design.
No layers. No jargon. No second-hand conversations. We work directly with you — asking the right questions, listening harder, and staying curious. Because the more we understand, the sharper the solution becomes.
The equation is simple:
Closer to our clients
By getting closer to our clients, we get closer to the problem.
Closer to the problem
By getting closer to the problem, we get closer to the right solution.
Closer to what matters
And that solution brings your brand closer to the people you need to reach.
It’s a common-sense way of working.
A way of thinking that turns strategy into action, partnership into progress, and design that brings you closer to what matters.
And here’s how we put that thinking into action:
Discover
We start by getting closer to you, your goals, and your audience. Through questions, workshops and research, we uncover the insights that matter most.
Distil
Clarity beats complexity. We cut through the noise, sharpen the strategy, and define the creative direction so everyone knows exactly where we’re headed.
Design
With strategy locked, we bring it to life — crafting bold, effective creative that connects with the right people, in the right way, at the right time.
Simple. Practical. Proven.
It’s how we move faster, collaborate better, and design work that truly connects.
