49th Floor Design & Artworking

49th Floor is a senior design and artworking partnership based in Bedfordshire. We were set up to support agencies and brands who need dependable creative delivery, not noise or overstatement. Our work sits across print, digital and presentation, often behind the scenes, where accuracy and judgement matter most.
Much of what we do involves careful handling. Projects that are already moving. Campaigns with tight timelines. Work with established guidelines, multiple outputs, or complex production requirements. This is where experience counts, and where small decisions have a big impact.
We bring strong judgement to every brief. That means knowing when to simplify, when to challenge, and when to quietly get on with the job. Our role is not to reinvent a brand, but to make sure it is applied consistently, clearly, and with confidence across every touchpoint.
Reliability is central to how we work. Clients trust us with demanding projects because they know the work will be accurate, well organised, and delivered properly. Clear communication and calm problem solving keep things moving and avoid unnecessary friction.
Over time, this approach has led to long term relationships with agencies and brands across a wide range of sectors. We are often asked back because we make complex jobs feel straightforward, and because working with us feels steady, professional, and easy.
