Founded in 1999, Designhive continues to deliver effective CGIs, animation and film to convey future-built environments using memorable and inspiring image content.


Our clients are mainly architects, engineers and developers covering regional, national and international projects. We help them sell their designs by producing conceptual CGIs or photorealistic quality images and animations for winning bids, planning, marketing or public consultation.

We understand the challenges our clients face in communicating their vision at each stage of the building life cycle and our mission is to be the best all round commercial choice creative agency, fully appreciative of the importance of good PR and brand positioning.

Our team of in-house visualisation artists, animators, graphic and motion graphic designers are supported by experienced marketers, storyboard artists and film producers. Using a consultative approach, our project managers will take you through our in-depth creative briefing process and handle your project through the various stages of location filming, photography, sound recording, voiceover, bespoke music composition and final editing to deliver video and films for broadcast-quality presentations.

We help clients tell their story by getting clarity on what it is they are trying to communicate and to whom, and then deliver using an appropriate mix of CGIs, visual special effects, video and animation. Our focus is their vision, the thinking behind their design solution, the benefits of their solution and what their final development will look like.

As specialists in the property sector, our clients choose to work with Designhive because of our long-established solid reputation based upon the foundations of technical excellence, accuracy, creativity and reliability.
