“It was great working with nooh to create the Discharge Card campaign! They were open to emerging ideas and nuances of direction, responsive to our needs, genuinely creative, and overall professional in their approach. We saw an initial concept come to life with their help, and we’ve had really positive feedback from all our stakeholders about the clarity and beauty of the campaign and its impact. I would not hesitate to work with them again, and highly recommend to take a nooh direction!”

– Joe Fraser, NHS, Head of Personalised Care – London


“In a world distracted by tricks and stunts, it was a relief to find someone who understands the profound importance of telling complex stories through everyday words and pictures. nooh's work on our global health initiative, Stop Superbugs, has revealed an uncanny ability to make the personal universal through hand-drawn design. If we deliver the project Helena’s artwork deserves, it's likely to become a source of quiet inspiration for the way society thinks and talks about our ability to overcome existential threat - in this case, drug-resistant infection.”

— Michael Corley, Stop Superbugs


“Co-designing with nooh helped increase the buy-in of the young people we were trying to reach, it needed to be by them for them and this was exactly the outcome we achieved. The Youth Boat Race branding and graphics had personality and soul that was representative of the people it was for.”

— Adam Freeman-Pask, Fulham Reach Boat Club


“nooh have been fantastic to work with. They instantly understood the nuances of our brief and have proved responsive, insightful and diligent throughout our time working together. Two things really set them apart though; their flexibility and willingness to sprint to meet deadlines, and their personality. Business should be fun and nooh have been a delight to work with.”

– Jared Williams, CEO and Founder, Evelyn


“We are delighted to have found nooh Studio. Working with Helena and her team has been truly collaborative and she works very precisely to the brief but also somehow at lightening speed! I have never been through such a lean process and this means that our rebranding hasn’t overshadowed our day to day work, so it’s been business as usual. We are really happy with the results and look forward to working with nooh for a long time to come.”

— Sara-Louise Ackrill, Wired Differently


“Working with Helena and nooh Studio on our brand was easy, they fully understood our brief right from the start, their proactive, energetic contribution added value at every stage. We developed a good working relationship and with their design flare and creativity the result is a design much better than we had imagined.

nooh have a profound understanding of people and how to communicate at all levels. They developed an empathetic understanding of PKU and our whole team really enjoyed working with them.

Helena also helped us tell the stories of people living with PKU during our successful parliamentary campaign. This complex rare condition is often misunderstood, listening to people who live with PKU every day and telling their stories is fundamental to making changes and improving lives. Helena has helped the voices of our community become stronger and our message is clearer.”

— Caroline Graham, NSPKU Charity


“Helena Traill has been an amazing person to work with for our Model City London work. The key reason for this is their ability to empathise with the needs of the community and understanding the importance in listening to their voices - particularly young people. This enabled us to create platforms online that are reflective of the community and mirrored the overall value of the Model City project, which is about using the bottom-up approach and giving control back to the community. Helena is always available to adjust and adapt with unique skills, but most importantly a good person that gets it!”

— Lee Parker, Laureus Sport For Good

“nooh has been incredible to work with. Their ability to understand a difficult brief which involved interpreting and incorporating many different opinions from organisations spanning across public and charity sectors was outstanding. nooh approached the work with an open attitude which was essential and produced branding for three community-led coalitions that really captures their identity - thank you. I couldn't recommend working with Helena and her team more highly.”

— Emily Neilan, Laureus Sport For Good


“Helena and her team at nooh Studio were inventive, excellent communicators, and ruthlessly efficient. They brought the concept of goodpadel to life, making a highly professional website and creating the launch materials. No matter what you are trying to create, nooh Studio will have an answer that is right for you. Thank you so much!”

— James Ash, Padel Project


“I recently worked with Helena on an organisational re-brand, and I would strongly recommend her and her team to anyone considering a similar project. Having undertaken a tendering process to appoint Helena, she emerged as the obvious choice because of her fresh approach to the problem we were presenting, and the confidence she commanded in her process to deliver our desired outcomes. Helena is professional and articulate in communicating her thinking, but what really sets her apart is her ability to unpack perspectives you are blind to within your own environment - forcing you to think objectively and broaden your mindset. Most importantly though, I thoroughly enjoyed working with Helena on our project, and found the whole process, from start to finish, very rewarding.”

— Jenny, British Universities and Colleges Sport


“Amplifi and the NYA have been working with Helena and the team at nooh studio for over a year now. Our first introduction came via the Digital Nomad Project when Helena worked alongside our young amplifi influencers to co-design our social media assets. Since then, we have worked on a number of projects and most recently our curriculum poster designs where Helena and the team consulted young people, listened to their ideas and worked closely with them to curate and design the layout for the posters. The team at nooh have paid such close attention to the voices of young people on this project, from constructing polling opportunities, to really capturing their design ideas and individual needs, nooh studio have been the perfect match for this piece of work and we look forward to working further with them in the future.”

– Bex Perry, NYA (The National Body for Youth Work in England)


“Helena is amazing at what she does, a great communicator, and incredibly organised. She is inspiring and motivating to work with. Under very tight time pressure we worked with Helena on a full suite of messaging, branding, design and digital reboot.

She managed the whole process, managed the recruitment and hiring of great subcontractors and delivered it to us seamlessly and professionally. She certainly exceeded expectations and truly overdelivered. I would recommend them time and time again - and I genuinely look forward to working with nooh Studio and the growing team on many projects in future!”

— Leon Tong, Co-Founder and CEO at The Digital Nomad Project


“Working with nooh Studio has been a dream. Not only did Helena work very efficiently, quickly and creatively, but she is very friendly and approachable, so I was able to collaborate with her knowing she would do everything she could to meet the brief. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again and recommend her very highly.”

– Polly, Priors Field School, Surrey


“Branding is vital to any business success. However, personal branding has that extra element of risk with it because it's not just about representing the business: it's about what YOU represent as a person, a colleague and a business woman.

The real beauty of working with Helena and her team at nooh Studio came down to the time and effort each person took to really understand me as a person, what I was really looking to achieve and, ultimately, how I wanted to be represented. And, well… I believe my brand speaks for itself.”

— Nicky Affleck


“We had the pleasure of working with nooh Studio on our brand guide and UI designs, and it was a great experience. Helena is incredibly creative and her dedication to her work is clear. They listened to our needs, proposed great ideas and worked efficiently to get the project completed in a short amount of time and within budget. Looking forward to working with them again in future!”

— Dr Dupe, Bloomful


“Helena’s work has been outstanding. She’s delivered everything in the brief and has added some amazing technical augmentations of her own. I’ve worked in digital media for more than 25yrs and Helena can be relied upon to successfully deliver a project on budget and on time. More than can be said for many others.”

— Tony Martin, Co-Founder CEO at Celestial, Former VP of Sony Europe


“Playwaze approached Helena with a need for someone new to ‘upset the apple cart’ when it came to our brand. Within a matter of days, Helena had both understood and captured the essence of what our brand stood for - and so why we exist - from a standing start. Helena has gone on to support us with not only the brand refresh, but a new look and feel and navigation for our website, and set us up for success when it comes to our content and communication. It’s been a pleasure working with Helena and we hope to continue working with her for many more months and years.”

— Charlie Clarke, Director at Playwaze


“Helena and her team created a complete series of animations for us, taking us through the conception of our ideas and bringing them to life in a way that both reflected our brand and communicated the message we wanted. This collaborative approach highlighted Helena's understanding of her clients' requirements whilst also making the entire creative process fun. We will certainly be returning to Helena in the future when the need arises and I couldn't recommend her & her team enough. Thanks!”

— Ewan Chesterton, Marketing Manager at Fundpath


“Helena was instrumental in bringing my simple idea to life and was responsible for so much more besides! This is my first foray into the world of start-ups and I simply couldn’t have done it without Helena’s enormous expertise as well as her patience, good humour and talent. She was one of the first people I consulted with my concept and with her guidance and help I am now the proud owner of a new business which is beyond what I could have imagined when starting out. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone in a similar position!”

— Jonathan Forbes, Founder, Help Me Tape


“We recently worked with Helena & her team to refresh our branding. We are delighted with the results and they made it a very smooth and simple process. They have set us up so that we can work in a very flexible way for the various seasonal events we have, whilst still retaining the essence of the new branding. We would 100% recommend nooh Studio, and in fact we already have to others who are looking for assistance with branding and websites.”

– Hermione, Chelsea Design Quarter


“Helena is the best! Our non-profit is based in the US and it has been incredibly easy to work with Helena remotely. We have done 3 pieces in the last month and we keep adding pieces because how much we love working with her. She makes for such a streamlined process. If we’re behind on the timeline that we have established Helena gently nudges us and provides a quick turn around. We would highly recommend her.”

— Aaron Marquise, Director at CCIAC


“I must have been one of the only directors in the Western world who didn't have a website and I had no idea how to do one. Helena came in and created something simple, clear and graphic with the minimum of fuss and effort. To boot she also helped out on a pitch treatment with some brilliant visuals and layout. Could not recommend highly enough.”

– John Dower, Documentary Filmmaker


“Helena is a real breath of fresh air. We had very little idea of what our fledgling business might look like when we first approached her and she has taken our passion and vision and created a differentiated, contemporary brand.”

— Flora Scott, Director at PearTree


“I worked with Helena on a number of e-commerce design and branding projects. Helena is a pleasure to work with and is truly fantastic at what she does!

— Jasmin McVeigh, Co-Founder and eCommerce Growth Specialist at Unicorn Studio

Many thanks Helena for your great service and customer support.”

— Phil Landers, Founder of LAND Chocolate


“As a self-employed technophobe, I had put off having a website for many years but Helena and her team have given me exactly what I wanted and really made it feel like me. I can’t praise them highly enough for their efficiency, responsiveness and know-how, besides being a complete pleasure to work with.”

— Lucy Moore, Writer


“As a writer and editor I tend to think that everything can best be explained in words. Helena is a wonderful person to work with as she has an instinct for making visual connections. She is quick to understand and respond, asks all the right questions and is very good at explaining how online content works. As a result I have a website that is less analogue and more intuitive, beautifully designed, clear and appealing and easy to navigate.”

— Henrietta Bredin, Writer
