Established in 1997, Williams Murray Hamm set out to offer clients an alternative to the intrusive logos and graphic formulas that had become commonplace in the world of 80s and 90s brand design. It seemed to us that robust ideas were of much greater value to clients than decoration and derivation.

With the help of some fearless clients, Williams Murray Hamm has gained an international reputation for creative and commercial success. We have won major awards at D&AD, Design Week, Clio and New York Festivals and been named No 1 for Creative Awards in 2005/06/07 (Design Week) and No 1 for Design Effectiveness 2003/04/06 by the DBA for work with clients like Clipper Teas, Cobra and Sainsbury’s.

The business recently featured in the Guardian’s 2007 ‘Top 50 Hottest Names in Design’ and Garrick Hamm will take over the Presidency of D&AD in 2008.
