Want to know more? Ok, here goes.

Our Name
Clear Space: the protective area surrounding a brand mark that helps ensure its greatest visibility and impact. That’s us. The important part at the centre? That’s you.

Our Philosophy
Big ideas. Flawless execution. Knocking stuff out of the park. Yeah, we’ve hit more than a few home runs. But that doesn’t mean we haven’t taken lots of swings at the ball. Sometimes it takes a few strikes before you connect. More than sometimes actually. If it didn’t, we’d know we weren’t working hard enough.

Our Friends
We collaborate with the best in the business – a crack team of printers, photographers, writers and developers. It took us years to build those relationships. We’ll share them with you.

Our Clients
We love them. We really do. Many even go on to become great friends. The fact that they pay us to do what we love for a living is just gravy.

Our Digs
It’s a century-old building in historic Unionville. Quaint, quiet and a great place to spend our days dreaming up bold and boisterous ideas. Come see us sometime.

Our Awards
We've been told they don't mean anything. But we’d rather have them than not. White walls look kind of bare without them.
