Design Agencies in York

Having lived in Sheffield, Rotherham and Leeds all my life I've grown very comfortable in Yorkshire and wouldn't want to move outside of Yorkshire for my first job because of this. I've always liked York so it seemed a good place to start looking at studios. 

Ignite Design

Website

Whilst this studio doesn't particularly specialise in UX/UI or packaging design, their work is all impressive, and there are a couple of articles on their blog which I've found particularly useful (here and here), despite the blog not being up to date. They seem like a quite a friendly company who'd respond to any attempts at communication if I had a question for them. 

The Distance

Website

The distance specialise in developing apps, (one of my main areas of interest with graphic design) and have worked on apps for organisations from the NHS to Bentley. Their blog is very up-to-date and is full of content, something which I try to do with my university blog. This is a studio that I intend to contact with a view to a work placement.
