Who is Ghost?
Ghost started with a simple belief: clients deserve better design and a smarter service, and that belief still shapes everything we do some 25 years later.
From our home in Burton upon Trent, we work with ambitious businesses to understand what truly matters, but more importantly, express it with clarity, confidence and intent.
We’re a brand-focused Design Agency made up of thinkers, makers and problem-solvers who creatively fully invest in our clients’ worlds. We listen carefully, ask the right questions and challenge when it counts, because the strongest work comes from clarity, not comfort. The result is design that performs for your business, your brand and the people you’re trying to reach.

Why Choose Ghost?
We treat every project with the same care and commitment, whether it’s a full brand transformation or a focused piece of work. What matters isn’t the size of the brief, but the belief behind it.
Our team cut through noise and distraction and bring calm, structure and momentum. They care deeply about outcomes, not just outputs and our clients get a partner who’s invested in getting it right and not just getting it done.
Because clarity changes everything.
How we do it
Our process is simple by design, but rigorous in thinking.
We believe the best ideas come from honest conversation, careful questioning and space to think properly. Every project starts with people and ends with work that’s ready for the real world.
We don’t overcomplicate things. We focus on what will genuinely move your business or project forward.
Why Ghost?
The best brands leave a presence behind, even when you can’t quite put your finger on why. That’s the role we play.
We help shape the thinking, craft the work and build the momentum, then step back so your design can take centre stage.
