Little Grey Dog Design is a multidisciplinary independent graphic design studio hidden away in rural Wiltshire, in the south west of England. Surrounded by countryside and inspired by nature, co-founders Katy and Joey decided they wanted to use their powers for good, and try to make the world a better place.

Having always loved being creative and making things for friends and family, after ten years as a civil servant, Katy took a leap of faith and left a promising career to pursue her dream of becoming a designer. Having completed her accelerated BA in Graphic Design from the University of Hertfordshire and the Interactive Design Institute (three years work in two), Katy is no stranger to hard work and has a keen eye for detail.

Joey has been a loyal office dog ever since he was a pup, and is currently living his best life napping in sun patches on the studio sofa, waking every now and then to check Katy is still working hard. When not at their desks, the team share similar hobbies in eating, napping and country walks!

We are passionate about design and creating a better future for everyone, and love turning client needs and briefs into tangible solutions with as much fun and creativity along the way as possible!

Question Time

Why did you name your studio Little Grey Dog Design?

We thought about going down the conventional route of using Katy's name, but then we thought we'd try something a bit more creative, and inclusive, and let Joey be the face of the operation - besides, let's be honest, he's way more photogenic; who could resist that face?! The name came from a phrase that people used to use to describe us in our previous lives as civil servant and office dog. People would say to Katy as "the lady with the little grey dog" and it kind of stuck.

How old is Joey & what breed is he?

At time of writing (Summer 2021) Joey is a ten year old salt and pepper miniature schnauzer.

Does Joey have a nickname?

Several! Joey also goes by the following: Jo, Jojo, Jojo-baaaa, Jojo-bug, The Bug, Bug-bug, Bugglingham, Mr Bugglingham of Bugglington Hall, Joseph, Josephine, Barky McBarkyson. This is not by any means an exhaustive list, and is updated as and when we make up or remember them.
