"I work with brands who want print that feels genuinely considered — not clip art in repeat."

Every design in the r.Co Design Studios collection begins as hand-crafted original artwork. You're not licensing a stock image — you're licensing a design created with intention, built for a specific market and season.

Custom commissions are also available if you're looking for something developed exclusively to your brief, colour story or trend direction.

Questions & Answers

Frequently asked
questions

Can I request a custom colourway?

Yes. Custom colourways — matching your brand palette, Pantone references or seasonal direction — are available on all licence types. This is quoted separately and typically adds 1–2 days to the delivery timeline.

What file formats do you deliver?

Standard delivery includes high-res TIFF and PNG repeat tiles at 300dpi. Adobe Illustrator .ai and PDF vector files are included on exclusive and semi-exclusive licences, and available as an add-on for non-exclusive.

Do you work internationally?

Yes — all files are delivered digitally and licences can be structured for any territory worldwide. International payments are accepted via bank transfer or PayPal. Invoices are issued in GBP, EUR or CAD.

Can I commission a completely new design?

Absolutely. Commissioned collections — built entirely to your brief, trend direction, colour story and end-use — are available. Commission timelines are typically 3–6 weeks depending on complexity. Get in touch to discuss.

What's the difference between licensing and buying outright?

Licensing grants you the right to use the design commercially for an agreed period and territory. Outright purchase (full copyright transfer) is available on exclusive licences — this is quoted case by case and is significantly higher in cost than standard licensing.

How long does the process take?

From first enquiry to files in your inbox is typically 3–5 business days for existing designs. Rush turnarounds (24–48hrs) are available for an additional fee. Custom commissioned work is 3–6 weeks from approved brief.
