What they say

Their knowledge and professionalism are second to none

We came to Studio 29 with little more than a product idea and some hand-drawn sketches. Six months later, that product is a reality. Their knowledge and professionalism are second to none – we consider them a vital part of the team. Oh…and they’re really nice guys!

Managing Director
Fitness Industry

Excellent to work with

Studio 29 has played a key role in the development of our FDA approved, hand-held, aesthetic medical product, specifically by adding RFID into our device and consumables to prevent mis-use by practitioners, increasing treatment time between charges, design development of the ergonomic housing and development of a charging station.They have been involved in all stages up to producing all of the documentation and test equipment for production in an ISO13485 manufacturing facility.
Rob (Gibbs) and his team are highly skilled, excellent to work with, responsive to feedback and importantly for the client they stick to budget guidelines and quoted prices.
I would highly recommend them.

Managing Director
Pharmaceutical Industry

Able to turn around projects quickly

Good design agency. I’ve been working with Rob and his team for the last 12 months and they are able to turn around projects quickly and efficiently whilst working closely with the client. Recommended.

  • Yesterday the office was closed as we all went out for our summer company event @marchhareleisurecentre.
As predicted the team were competitive as we all enjoyed clay shooting, pistol shooting and go karting. 
The weather was perfect as was the venue.

Jon and his team at March Hare Leisure greeted us warmly with tea & coffees to start before splitting us into teams to compete against each other in the shooting🔫
Then a lovely bbq lunch before the go karts 🏎️🏁
Once suited and booted we had a test run before several rounds of the mini prix begun. 
The team were competitive again, a few bumps, spins & sneaky passes it ended with Rob, Attila, Lewis & Math in the finale! 

The company director - Rob triumphantly took 1st place🥇 
Attila -🥈Lewis -🥉 Math - 4th

A great day! Highly recommend @marchhareleisurecentre they were fantastic, great sense of humours, professional, fun & knowledgeable about each activity!
Thank you, we all had a great time & will be back again soon i am sure 👌🏼
