About Shine Creative
Shine Creative is a British integrated design, branding and digital marketing agency based in Hartley Wintney, Hampshire. Established in 2000, it works with growing businesses, non-profit organisations and multinational brands, bringing strategy, design, development and content together across brand identities, websites and marketing campaigns.
The agency’s branding work covers naming, positioning, value propositions, tone of voice and visual identity systems. Its digital practice combines website design and development with content management systems, responsive applications and interactive tools. Campaign and content services extend this work into advertising, lead generation, editorial production, video and 2D motion graphics, connecting a client’s brand identity with its ongoing communications.
Turning complex subjects into accessible experiences
A dedicated ESG communications practice helps corporate clients and environmental organisations explain sustainability strategies, impact reporting and governance information. The work combines narrative and visual design to make complex material more accessible to stakeholders and public audiences.
Its portfolio illustrates a similar approach across other sectors. For Langdon Customs & Excise Solutions, the agency combined brand repositioning and a refreshed visual identity with an interactive Duty Savings Calculator designed to explain bonded warehousing and support business enquiries. Its work for FloxMind covered naming, corporate identity and a brand narrative for a robotics intelligence venture inspired by flock and shoal dynamics.
For The European Nature Trust, Shine Creative redesigned the Coexistence Adventures travel platform ahead of its 2027 programme launch, alongside email and digital campaign toolkits. Other projects include brand and digital work for logistics businesses Big Digit and SpeedX, and a rebrand for the Royal Merchant Navy Education Foundation that updated its identity while retaining connections to its history.
On 1 May 2024, Feelgood Creative merged operations with Shine Creative. The integration brought together their teams and client relationships, expanding shared creative, copywriting and digital resources within the Shine agency structure.
