Our Story.

Established in 2010, Coast is an award-winning team of brand design specialists, marketing gurus, and website developers located in the rapidly growing, coastal city of Coffs Harbour NSW. Akin to a coastline joining land and sea, our boutique creative agency is an environment between two worlds – brand and audience. Champions of creative change, we collaborate closely with our clients to effectively communicate the unique essence or fingerprint of their brand.

Coast’s willingness to share our expertise empowers and enables our clients to do great things, underpinning an unwavering approach to our customer experience. We bring together and inspire the local creative industry; giving back to our community by providing employment opportunities for young people who want to do great things and be part of change for good.

Always aiming higher, we think bigger picture when working on even the smallest of details, achieving maximum engagement at every stage of the creative process. Working with Coast you can expect consistency, a passion for people and full service with a smile … maybe even the odd meme. Your return on investment? Connecting a brand to its people and ensuring the people become the essence of your brand. It’s the Coast way.
