Aory is short for 'A Story', this is ours.
We are a creative guild of designers, artists and marketing strategists, led by Sunny Blevins and Gemma Harland who, collectively, have over 24 years in the creative industry. After years working both in-house and in agencies, Sunny and Gemma longed to carve out a space where strategic thinking takes centre stage, human craftsmanship is valued, and clients are treated like partners not accounts.
Designers and marketers are not supposed to get along. Sunny and Gemma missed that memo. Great friends and even better collaborators, they set out to create not an agency but a guild where craft and strategy work as one, where unforgettable brands are forged and clients leave empowered.
Let us help you write your own story.
