James Ratcliffe Design

Working as an independent designer and consultant, I had the pleasure of uniting my passion for music and design, with a focus in the cultural sector, I created identities, digital design and artwork for music labels, management companies, festivals and venues.

Owner

An Evening With

Carefully curated parties that showcased some of the most respected artists from the spectrum of house & techno, for the entire evening. We had the pleasure of booking artists such as Floating Points, Bicep, Hessle Audio, Daniel Avery Ben Block, Joy Orbison, Carig Richards, Prosumer and Move D.

It was great to build a brand, book some of our heroes, and go out on a high before starting our design studio! Even when creating artwork and the branding for our events we were obsessed with process, collaboration and quality which put us in good stead for launching Rhombus.

Founder

Shapes

We had the joy of building Shapes up from a 100 cap free event to one of the leading club brands in the South West, selling out 2,000+ capacity shows at Motion and Lakota, as well as hosting stages at some of the UK and Europe's leading festivals including Love International, Exit, Boomtown, The Secret Garden Party and Shambala. 

Here I learned how to build a brand and launch, market and run a businesses. I had the pleasure of cutting my teeth as a designer, honing my craft through event posters, record label artwork and merchandise. It was one hell of a ride!

Co-Founder

Don't Panic

After university I gained valuable industry experience leading the design direction, digital magazine and marketing channels for the Bristol section of Don't Panic. Notable collaborations with high profile artists like Shepard Fairey and David Shrigley, as well developing their online presence, as they transitioned from print to digital.

Editor & Designer

I have had the joy of working in the creative industry for over a decade, with a diverse portfolio of clients, both corporate and cultural. I co-founded Rhombus Studio in 2018 with my best friend Simon. For us, running an agency isn’t just about great design, it’s about telling stories, connecting people and making a positive impact on businesses, people and the planet.
