PEOPLE CAN PUT their own stamp on things at London design agency Pearlfisher, which recently hired a traditional letterpress machine and challenged everyone in the company to produce a piece of art on the theme “What is creativity?” For the 63 employees, creativity came in all colours, and their prints made a lively display for Pearlfisher's own gallery. This agency, which is back on our list for the first time since 2008, works on brand design for companies such as Innocent drinks, Cadbury and Absolut vodka, and it shares its design focus with the public through this gallery. “We believe in creating a better future through design, and we bring this perspective to everything we do,” the company says, and employees feel its social conscience is a great strength (giving a top-10 positive score of 91%). www.pearlfisher.com
