About

Small studio.
Big standards.

We started because we got tired of seeing small businesses overpay for underwhelming design.

We started Serious Onions because we were tired of seeing small businesses pay agency prices for template work. Logos that look like clip art. Websites that take six months and still don't work on a phone. Vinyl on a van that looks like it was done with a marker pen.

Agencies charge what they charge because they have overheads: account managers, project coordinators, creative directors who look at your brief once and then hand it to a junior. You end up paying for a lot of people who aren't actually making your stuff.

We keep it lean. You talk to the person doing the work. No account managers, no project boards, no discovery workshops unless you actually want one. Just good design, fair prices and stuff delivered when we said it would be.

Most of our clients are trades, hospitality, retail and small businesses across the UK. People who need things to look professional without the runaround. People who have tried the cheap route and got burned, or who've been quoted a fortune by an agency for a logo and a business card.

We're based in the UK, we work remotely with clients nationwide, and we usually turn things around fast — because most small businesses can't wait three months to get moving.

Kind words

Don't take our word for it.

★★★★★

"Sorted our website, van graphics and business cards in a week. Dead easy to deal with and the quality was spot on."

"No messing about. Got a quote the same day, and the finished wrap looked exactly like the mockup. Will use again."

Dave P. — Apex Electrical
★★★★★

"They actually listened instead of trying to upsell us stuff we didn't need. The brochure looks brilliant."

Sarah M. — Millbrook Kitchens
