Studio
The Nixon studio is closing, but our legacy of strategic, creative work continues.

Our story
For over 30 years, Nixon stood out as one of Cornwall’s best-loved branding agencies. Under the guidance of Martin Nixon, our team of designers, strategists, copywriters, and account and project managers was known and celebrated for producing creative, challenging, and strategically focused work.
Although we closed our doors in May 2025, we like to think our legacy endures. By shaping brands with soul, we’ve helped shake up sector conventions, define lasting purpose, and champion values-led communications. Our work continues through the success of the amazing clients we were lucky enough to collaborate with.
While the studio is no longer operating, our team members have moved on to exciting new ventures. If you’d like to stay in touch or work with us in the future, you can find out more using profiles below.






















Our team

Responsible for the creative output of the studio, Diggory played a key role in every project.
He produces award-winning design, drawing together strategic thinking, words and visuals to create an impactful final piece. In his life before Nixon, Diggory carried out branding and advertising for names like Coca-Cola and Nike.
You can now find him at Studio Diggory Gordon.

Edoardo’s early experience working as a designer in Rome has shaped his design style, giving it a hint of Mediterranean influence through vibrant colours and playful illustration.
Before Nixon, Edoardo worked in Berlin with global brands such as Red Bull and Ray-Ban, creating impactful designs that resonate with people worldwide.

Hannah is involved in every step of a project, from the initial planning stage to the final sign-off and follow-up support.
With a first-class degree in business enterprise and enviable organisational skills, she’s able to deploy seemingly effortless attention to detail, while also asking the all-important bigger questions about a project.

Martin founded Nixon Design over 30 years ago.
It was Martin’s sense of vision and entrepreneurial spirit that made Nixon thrive and endure for so long. Now, he can be found supporting local initiatives, working on his own creative projects, or taking a dip (weather permitting) in the chilly Atlantic.
