We’ve worked with the brilliant Out of Place for a number of years now and they are just fantastic. They have looked after our website, brand, and design projects as well as delivered workshops to our team and artists. They have worked hard to truly understand us as on organisation and create work that represents who we are.
They are a pleasure to work with, friendly and responsive to our needs. We’re about to refresh our website with them and I am genuinely looking forward to it which is a far cry from how I have felt in the past with other companies.”
There from the beginning
We started working with Bradford Producing Hub at the very start of their journey, helping set up the technical infrastructure before the brand even existed — email systems, hosting, domain setup — then developing the brand identity, website and full asset pack to coincide with their launch.
Bradford Producing Hub’s mission was to put Bradford on the map as a thriving hub for live arts and performance, supporting creative talent and partnering with communities across the district. The brand needed to reflect that ambition: distinctive, energetic and genuinely rooted in Bradford rather than a generic arts organisation identity. We delivered a full brand system, print and digital asset pack, social media setup and integration, and trained the team to manage everything themselves.
Out of Place has helped the BPH team reach a further audience and supported their marketing, employees and outreach through design, tech support and consultation.”
A design partnership that grew with the organisation
Over six years, the relationship expanded well beyond the original brief. We produced hundreds of individual design assets — event graphics, campaign materials, social content, email templates, posters and promotional materials — supporting the organisation’s communications as it grew into one of Bradford’s most significant cultural development bodies.
Report design became a significant strand of the work. We designed Bradford Producing Hub’s annual reports and impact reports, as well as the Bradford Data Review: a major research report examining cultural participation, assets and funding across the Bradford district. The review draws on national data to analyse local cultural engagement, identifies gaps in how Bradford’s rich community participation is measured, and sets out opportunities for the future of culture in the district. It remains a key reference document for anyone working on culture and place in Bradford.
