Garçon’s method: Guiding the agency’s actions
︎︎︎ Keep It Real
We’re honest, down-to-earth, and super passionate about all things design. We try to keep our discussions light, productive yet fun because we believe that enjoying the process shines through in the final work. #goodvibesonly
︎︎︎ Keep It Light
We focus on building strong relationships, along with creating great design. Good rapport with our clients is key, and we aim to be “a pleasure to work with” which could be why we’ve been working with some of our very first clients since we began in 2015.
︎︎︎ Keep It Connected
As a boutique design agency, our designers work directly with you. This keeps communication quick and smooth, leading to faster turnarounds and more accurate results.
︎︎︎ What our clients say
“Garçon were highly professional in all aspects of our publication and great to work with. The management of the works stages was done efficiently so the book was finished within a tight timeline. They were able to easily comprehend the design aesthetic we were after and proposed a selection of strong graphical proposals which elevated the book content. The copy editing was invaluable in bringing together numerous author inputs into a cohesive and harmonious flow.
We enjoyed a good working relationship where it was easy to bounce off ideas and get a lot of helpful advice. Despite this being my first publication, I was guided by the team which made the process straight forward and a lot less stressful.
Thank you Garçon for delivering the ‘Designing a City in Nature’ book which looks fantastic!”
Design Director, National Parks Board
“Garçon was a pleasure to work with. They showed a keen interest and sensitivity to our content, and understood our intended concept and the message we wanted to convey. I appreciated their willingness to try different textures, along with refreshing use of typography, to pull off a rather difficult brief of balancing both “old” and “new” in the An Old New World book design.”
Lead, National Museum of Singapore

They were instrumental in providing timely and sound advice to ensure the product fit our vision. I can highly recommend Garçon as a trusted partner!”
