Company details

  1. Website Designer

Information provided by various external sources

If you're lucky enough to have experienced the thrill of inspiration when appreciating a thoughtfully designed poster, a minimalist website or a page of beautifully balanced typography, then we are kindred spirits. In 1997 this passion for balance, consistency and visual beauty in the graphic arts came to a head when Tinstar Design was founded in a small spare bedroom in Lymington, Hampshire. Decades later, our small studio, now based in a classic listed Georgian building in the centre of this famous sailing town, still thrives on the joy of creating simple graphical communication through website development and graphic design. We work alongside all sorts of companies, helping them to build their business by conveying their message to their customers in creative, effective ways. And we have a great little coffee machine for meetings.

Professional, and above all patient. He listened and worked with us.
Thank you Nick for seeing our small tweaks through and getting this to print.
It was a pleasure working with you.

Outstanding digital and design support

I've worked with Tinstar on a few websites for different projects and Nick's service and knowledge are always excellent and far above what you would normally expect. He makes my life so much easier, and we've been able to deliver results time, and again that impressed our customers. He is also a pleasure to work with. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I would highly recommend Nick and his company. Martin & Co in Wye use Tinstar to design and print our monthly newsletter and their work is first rate. The communication with this company is excellent and they always deliver fantastic creative copy on time. Printing is fast and the quality is brilliant. If you are looking for a hassle free design and print option I would not look elsewhere.

First Class customer service

The customer service from Tinstar was first class they were very fast to respond to my initial enquiry and got a proof out to me within 24 hours of my request. The product I ordered arrived in a timely manner and is of a very high standard.
I would highly recommend Tinstar and will use again in the future.

Huge Thanks from Troy at Forrest Rescue

We recently found ourselves in need of a website, logo update and normal things to go with it. Tinstar Designs Website kept me reading! Following a relaxed and informative meeting with Nick at Tinstar Designs Ltd we pressed the GO button. Basically without Nicks advice, information, skill, amazing communication, detail and patience it might not of turned out how it did. All I can say is a big thanks to him and Tinstar and should you need any of his Creative Design Work for Websites, Branding or Promotional things give him a call.

I have used Nick and Tinstar Design for over twenty years and it goes without saying that you will get a complete print and website design service using up to date visuals and technologies. However what is invaluable is the extra time and effort Nick puts in on my behalf keeping my website live. This includes search engine optimisation (SEO), defence against spam, server problems and fending off cyber security server attacks, which are out of his control!
I am not sure I would get this dedication from a larger design studio.

I first used Nick at Tinstar way back in 2005. He has helped me many times since by being able to grasp a brief and turn around artwork in short order. Quality design work usually takes time and a lot of client intervention, Nick grasps briefs and ships quality work quickly so you if you looking for an agile business partner in this specialist area I can wholeheartedly recommend Tinstar.

Excellent value and creative

Responsive, thoughtful and they listen to what you want, not what they think you want.

Excellent value for money and the series of six wine labels created were beyond expectation.

Professional Hardworking team

Professional Hardworking team. We have used them on several designs for the Company now, they have good sound ideas and the turn around time is efficient and their costs are reasonable.

Recommended for website design and build

Tinstar has designed and built a new website for our small business. This included transferring content from our old website and a complete redesign. Everything from initial discussions to the artistic design of the website and technical help has been extremely good. Nick listened to what we wanted, offered constructive and useful ideas about the design and content, came up with a clear modern design that fitted our business, and delivered to budget. We are very pleased with the process and the final product. I have no hesitation in recommending Tinstar and look forward to working with them on future projects.

Exemplary Design Agency

We set up Lyndhurst Chiropractic Clinic in 2008 and Nick has helped us right from the very beginning with every aspect, from designing our logo, stationery, signage and advertising to creating and hosting our website. He has always been, and continues to be, extremely professional, knowledgeable, friendly, honest and able to translate the technical stuff for us. He is always at the end of the phone and happy to help with the most mundane of queries and extremely quick to respond to any updates or changes we need. We cannot recommend Nick and Tinstar Design highly enough.

Deliver on the brief every time.

We have worked with Nick and the team at Tinstar Design on many projects over many years. They have created high quality catalogues, adverts, exhibition graphics and office signage for us. Nick and the Tinstar team are highly professional and deliver on the brief every time. Their experience, knowledge and creative input at every stage of the project leads to a high quality finished product, on schedule. I have no hesitation in recommending Tinstar Design to any business.

Tinstar were brilliant at working in a collaborative way to design a logo, website, business cards, document suite, etc for a brand new business.
Throughout the process they listened to our requirements and executed on our initial idea whilst staying flexible (to our frequent changes!) and adding huge value by making loads of improvements and generally going the extra mile to come up a superb end product.

We have used Tinstar since about 1995 during this time we have had an excellent relationship with Nick Beresford-Davies and his team. Nick has helped Admiral with all our design and branding requirements and helped us produce numerous leaflets and display ads as well as stationary and complex documentation. He has also produced three brilliant websites over the years as technology has improved in this area.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Nick to businesses who require an imaginative, diligent and professional service who have time to listen. A Class Act!
