The Directors
Tom Newton-Smith, Director of Crayons
Meet Tom, our Co-founder and design guru, bringing over 25 years of graphic design expertise from the UK and New Zealand. Starting in a car magazine company, he swiftly rose to studio manager and has since showcased his versatility and skill in diverse design roles. Beyond design, Tom’s impact extends as a trained youth and community worker, actively engaging with local communities, non-profits, and faith-based projects. When not bringing designs to life, he enjoys firing up the BBQ, DJing, playing football, or indulging in a game of squash with family and friends.
