Double Happiness was born in late 2015. We started the business because our lifestyles were changing and thought there’s no better way to be creative than in your own space, at your own pace and of course, for your own clients.
We work closely with our clients on their projects and we aim to empower ownership and amplify design thinking. We love to work B2B because we can provide immediate solutions for our clients. In large corporations, results can take weeks, or even months before things pass down the food chain. Not with Double Happiness Design.
Our experience is extensive and cured from having worked in advertising agencies like Clemenger, Grey and DDB Melbourne (with years of freelancing in rabbit warrens) and researching how we could do things differently. This has afforded us the insight over 2 decades of working in-house and blue chip, on everything you can possibly imagine. Clients such as Mazda, TAC, Mitre 10, Country Road, Peter Alexander, AAMI, Brown Brothers, Kayser, Volvo, Suncorp, Coles, Domo Furniture, Mirvac, ABC Radio, Lincraft, Australia Post, Public Transport Victoria, TAC, AV Jennings, SA Government, Orlando Wines, Kmart and many more.
Starting out on the floor of pre-press print houses to years in studios waiting for ‘people’, to sitting in countless marketing meetings, working with art directors and directing their decisions, re-copy writing the copied, finishing art that wasn’t finished, designing from a napkin because there was no budget and leading creative direction for global decision makers, we can pretty much say, we know our stuff – minus the stress!
There has also been a number of years working client-side. This means, no longer for the agency, but in a business, face-to-face and making management wonder why they didn’t choose in-house creative before. We understand both sides of the fence and we’ve provided innovation within those chapters from our history.
We love to be hands on as much as possible (mac baby, mac), having a chat, sketching up ideas and getting excited for you. Our business is digitally minded mostly and of course we could go into all the jargon surrounding your SEO and ‘getting to number one on Google’… but that would be like most other websites telling you all about what they do and you won’t understand a word they’re saying.
We prefer to have a chat with you first about what your ideas are and how we can creatively bring them to life. Every business is different and we pride ourselves on listening to everyone. We are a unique business in that we work (and play) all hours, all days and that’s because we can. You never know when an idea will strike.
Let’s go on that journey. We promise you, we’ll be sincere and you will enjoy yourself!
