Independent since 2012, ambitious ever since
We're a 60-person studio in London, Berlin and New York working with a handful of clients at a time.
3 cities
Started by two designers who wanted to do the work properly
Novaris began in a shared studio in Shoreditch with one belief: great work happens when strategists, designers and engineers sit at the same table from day one. Fourteen years later that's still how every project runs.
We've stayed independent on purpose. No holding company, no quotas, no juniors hidden behind partners. Just a team that cares about the outcome as much as you do.
Founded in London. First client: a local coffee roaster, still a client today.
Berlin studio opens. First Awwwards Site of the Day.
New York studio. Team passes 40 people.
240 projects, 32 awards, 60 people across three cities.
How we work
Radical clarity
Plain language, transparent budgets, honest timelines. Even when it's uncomfortable.
Senior by default
The people who pitch are the people who do the work. No bait and switch.
Momentum
Weekly demos and shipped work beat perfect decks. We move fast and show progress.
Craft
Details matter. We sweat the kerning, the load time and the last 2% of polish.
The people you'll work with
What our clients say
“Novaris rebuilt our brand and website in twelve weeks. Inbound leads doubled in the first quarter and the board finally understands what we do.”
“Rare combination of strategic thinking and flawless execution. They challenged our brief and the result was far better than what we asked for.”
“Transparent budgets, weekly demos, zero surprises. Our third project together and we're already planning the fourth.”
