about
A design and development studio based in York.
What we care about
To produce high quality outcomes — without this everything else we do is irrelevant. The work we deliver to our clients is what we stake our reputation on, it’s as important to us as we know it is to them. Plus it gives us something to show off about.
To adhere to a considered process — we know that structure is key to getting the best out of ourselves and our clients. This allow us to define, communicate and deliver to our own exacting standards. It’s all part of the master plan.
To foster a positive environment — there’s no reason this shouldn’t be enjoyable. We keep in mind the real people behind the businesses we work with, ensuring we stop short of taking things that bit too seriously. We work better when we’re happy too.

behind the business
More than just a one man band.
I'm Joel Mitchell — designer, developer and founder of Bracken. A team of one with a great network to call on when the time is right. I collaborate with experts to build the perfect team to fit the project, giving my clients exactly what they need. This is where the 'I' becomes 'we'.
With over 15 years of industry experience, I have worked with a wide range of businesses and clients ranging from independent fashion houses to leading global PR agencies. As a classically trained designer, I spent the early years of my career working in editorial design and always look to bring that sense of finesse and eye for detail into my now predominantly digital work.
