At our core we believe in collaboration.
Owned and run by Leanne and Martin, (partners in business and life), the Sheaf Design Studio is based out of our office in Neepsend, Sheffield.
When you work with us, you’re not just hiring a design studio, you’re gaining a creative partner. From branding to print design, we become an extension of your business, your design go-to. We take the time to understand your vision, your goals, and the story behind your brand.
So while we’re excited to get to know you, it’s equally important for you to know us…

Meet Leanne + Martin
Leanne | Senior Designer + Director
Leanne is the creative force behind Sheaf Design. Originally from Castleford, she moved to Sheffield in 2002 to study Graphic Design, where she met Martin—and the rest is history.
Qualified to degree level, Leanne spent her first 15 years as an in-house designer at a Barnsley-based agency, working across diverse industries from healthcare and beauty to industrial and trades. This fast-paced role honed her ability to deliver creative, on-brand solutions under tight deadlines.
Today, Leanne brings her extensive experience to every project, crafting unique, well-researched designs that help clients stand out and grow.
Martin | Manager + Director
Originally from Nottingham, Martin moved to Sheffield to study photography after studying art history and photography in Norwich.
Now a full-time manager at a corporate business, Martin’s organisational and managerial skills keep everything running smoothly. He handles the admin and accounts, but isn’t afraid to get hands-on.
From managing enquiries and deliveries to running the printer and pitching in with design and packing, Martin supports every aspect of the business to ensure everything is taken care of.

What we stand for…
Why ‘Sheaf Design’
Like many people who become adopted Sheffielders, we fell in love with this city, and we’re incredibly proud to live here.
And since we serve so many incredible businesses in Sheffield & South Yorkshire, it seemed only fitting to incorporate a little Sheffield into our business.
For those from further afield — the river Sheaf runs right through the city, and is where Sheffield gets its name from.
