1. SDL
I feel that i would really like to work with a company like this. Exploring a lot of methods and basing idea generation through visual and conceptual design really fits and suits me as a designer. I feel that the use of identity building is effective and they produce a lot of clean and creative projects. The clients are quite well known and the use of them building up a team works well.

In terms of working for a commercial and nationally known company, I would like to work for snask. They use alot of different techniques to generate and create the heart and soul of a brand. They are SO original and do things their own way which allows them to be a strong creative group. I feel that they are unique and i feel that i reate to their terms and style of design. I agree with their manifesto and the things they stand for.
3. Studio MIKMIK
This company is based in west Yorkshire which focusses on publications and promoting events. What drew me towards this studio was their use of pattern and print whilst designing layout and information publications. Recently I have really been enjoying layout with written content and image based work. I have always enjoyed typography and pattern illustration, so combining these skills together in a studio is something I could see myself doing. The studio is aslo in a good location, not far from Leeds College of Art, therefore it is realistic to contact and visit. I have also noticed the typography that the studio do which is definitely an area I want to focus on.
4. Sass and Peril

5. I love dust
'I love dust' is a collaborative studio which covers many areas of graphic design, illustration typography and even animation. They are based in East London and on the South coast. For me, the studio specifying on a range of areas gives me confidence that I could learn a lot from a company like this. Also, the idea of collaboration is something that I would find interesting and always a good challenge. I think this company is a bit out of comfort zone and not my normal style but I think this is why I like it. They have worked for a lot of well-known companies such as nike and Absolute vodka. They seem to sert there standards high which also draws me to this studio.
6. Sunlights on closed lids
Recently I bought some greeting cards from the sculpture park in Yorkshire which I really liked the design of. I went onto the shop online which led me to loads of illustration and type based cards that I adored. This studio in particular caught my eye. Every aspect of their card designs is how I would like to work. I would like to contact them because their are so many questions I would like to ask them.I think I would contact this company with a hand rendered letter or card and post it to them traditionally.
