Supporting your brand’s ambition

SetForth Studio is an independent creative studio, dedicated to supporting your brand challenges with creative solutions that engage your audience across every touchpoint.

I'm Steve Reid, Founder of SetForth Studio, based just outside Aberdeen, Scotland. With 20 years of agency experience as a Graphic Designer and Creative Director, I'm passionate about developing brands that engage and resonate with the people who matter most to you.

SetForth Studio was born when the challenges of Covid showed us that creative solutions could be delivered from anywhere on the globe, working with companies from startups to multinationals to collaborate on brands that transcend borders and languages. Harnessing my own experience alongside a network of talented Creatives, Developers, and Marketers, SetForth is committed to delivering exceptional results that exceed your expectations and help you stand out in a crowded marketplace.
