Studio Frith is a new graphic design consultancy set up by Frith Kerr after 11 years as a director and partner of the highly acclaimed Kerr/Noble. “Britain has continued to produce — and educate — some of the world’s leading designers: Kerr/Noble in graphic design...” Alice Rawsthorn, International Herald Tribune.

These include: Artangel, Chisenhale Gallery, David Chipperfield Architects, Gallery Libby Sellers, Hussein Chalayan, Melrose & Morgan, Plain English, Rizzoli, Serpentine Gallery, Somerset House, Studioilse, Victoria & Albert Museum and White Cube.
Current projects include: identity for a private guest house in Stockholm with StudioIlse; a book on the drawings of Lucian Freud; an upcoming publication for Visual Editions written by Adam Thirlwell.
