About

Intercity is a UK-based graphic design studio with a network of collaborators from the worlds of art, design, illustration, photography, digital media and beyond. Intercity applies its highly creative and considered approach across a range of areas including identity, editorial, digital, environmental and advertising. In addition to graphic design, the studio also specialises in curatorial and art-based work, including live art projects.

Originally founded by three friends in 2004, Intercity currently consists of remaining founder Nathan Gale, and senior designer Trystan Thompson. The pair work together across two studios based in the South West of England.

Background

Nathan Gale was art director of leading communication arts journal, Creative Review, for almost ten years. In that time he worked with some of the best creative minds in the industry - from designer Peter Saville, to advertising agency Mother. He has been on the judging panels of numerous awards, including D&AD, and has lectured at various institutions around the country. He has also written for, or been interviewed about his work by, publications such as Étapes, Fairy Tale and Vice magazines. Over the years, Gale’s work has been recognised and awarded by his peers. His work for Creative Review can be found in D&AD annuals, was nominated as one of the Design Museum’s Designs of the Year, and was awarded a Silver at the Art Directors’ Club awards in New York.

Trystan Thompson is a multi-disciplinary designer, with skills ranging from editorial and brand identity to animation and website design. Over the past five years, his work with Intercity has included three-dimensional typography for Wired magazine, animation and design for the This Is Where We Are installation at the Tate Modern, identity and website design for large-scale art exhibitions We The People Are The Work and The Atlantic Project, and wayfinding design for the University of Plymouth.
