Nina Cooper design director

Nina Cooper

Director
Co-owner of Beyond Local Ltd (with Mark!), armed with 20 years of experience in graphic design for print and digital including mobile apps and prototyping.

The heart of my work lies in the joy of collaboration – working hand-in-hand with people and tackling challenges together.

Outside of the design world, my passion for painting takes over, and I can be found brush in hand in my shed.

Animation and motion graphics
Tim has been working in design for over a decade, and has a broad experience in everything from video editing and motion graphics to branding and printed materials.

Starting out in the world of charity marketing he has a great understanding of how to boost client engagement through thoughtful, targeted design. When he's not obsessing over pixels and key frames Tim loves to run (slowly), read (widely) and take photos (analogue-ly!).
