Welcome to Creative Canary, your local Fremantle based duo shaking up the world of digital design. We’re Phil and Anthony, the two driving forces behind Creative Canary, and we live by our motto: we create and nurture.
Our journey began in 2015 because we believed in the transformative power of thoughtful design and creative storytelling. Fast forward to today, we’ve become more than just a digital agency; we’re innovators, creators, and nurturers, making professional web and brand design accessible to everyone.
Unlike bigger agencies, we’re about keeping things simple and personal. There’s no fluff or needless complexity, just us working hand in hand with our clients, delivering bespoke design solutions and unforgettable web experiences. We value open communication, trust, and transparency above everything else.
Our philosophy is simple: design is a powerful tool that should be accessible to all, regardless of budget. This belief has shaped our approach and allowed us to cater to a wide array of clients, from small businesses and start-ups to nonprofits and community projects.
We’re problem solvers, creatives, and most importantly, your partners in the journey to success. Let’s create and nurture something remarkable together.
Phil is the heart and soul of Creative Canary. As the founder, his love for design and innovation has been the driving force behind the agency’s success. His journey began at the tender age of 12 when he designed his first website for his performance school. This early exploration sparked a lifelong passion for all things creative, leading him to his first professional design job at the age of 18.
His unique approach to design centers on minimalism with a twist. He loves to take inspiration from current trends but always finds a way to forge his own path. Outside of work, he’s equally passionate about music, often spending time at his piano, writing and recording. This dual devotion to design and music fosters daily inspiration and a sense of rhythm that can be seen in his work.
One of Phil’s greatest strengths is his aptitude for relationships. He enjoys meeting new people, hearing their stories, and helping them translate these narratives into a visual brand. This focus on connection makes him a strong ally for his clients, many of whom take pride in the brands he helps them create.
Phil started Creative Canary out of a desire to make a difference. He was driven by a wish to work directly with clients, regardless of their budget, and to help them succeed. This focus on community and a hands-on approach continue to shape the culture at Creative Canary. He sees the future of the agency continuing to support community-based projects, helping those who are making a positive impact.
Anthony is a cornerstone of Creative Canary. As a problem-solver with a wealth of experience from his time working in niche companies, he brings a unique perspective and a rich skillset to the agency. His design journey has been marked by a willingness to dive headfirst into new tools and technologies, always seeking to learn and grow.
His design philosophy is simple and effective: ‘Keep it Simple, Silly’. With over 12 years in the creative industry, he has honed his ability to quickly grasp new skills and use them to provide clients with innovative solutions. Outside of his professional life, Anthony loves working with his hands. From tinkering with broken items to creating beautiful furniture from reclaimed wood, he carries his creative problem-solving approach into all aspects of his life.
Anthony’s tech-savvy background and interest in industry trends ensure that Creative Canary stays on the cutting edge. His proudest achievements include creating dynamic listing sites for clients in the event management sector, streamlining their processes and providing them with a frictionless experience.
What drew Anthony to Creative Canary was a shared value system and seamless synergy with Phil. His hope for the future of the agency is to continue nurturing relationships with clients who share these values, ensuring that Creative Canary remains a hub for superior design solutions.
After working in the coffee industry for many years, I heard the name Creative Canary floated around quite a bit. When it was time to start my own roastery and café, I knew who to call. Creative Canary was essential in the start of my business and will continue to be for years to come. Every piece of design work you see in our café or online I’m proud to say is designed by the creative geniuses.
I always found Creative Canary to be very helpful and perfect for a novice tech operator like myself. They explained everything in easy to understand language and were extremely prompt with responding to emails and requests. I am very happy with the way my branding and website turned out and at how quickly they were able to get me up and running.
I’ve worked with Creative Canary on various projects now and I’ve been extremely satisfied with our client’s websites. They’re an endless pool of creativity that comes with unbeatable communication and fair pricing. As a marketing agency, it’s important that we partner with digital agencies we can trust and that will benefit our clients – Creative Canary is one of those agencies.
It was such a pleasure dealing with the team at Creative Canary recreating our new logo and website. After 20 years, we were well overdue for a more modern update and their fresh ideas were fantastic. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Your passion for what you do shows in your work and your friendly nature is why you will continue to succeed in your business.
Right from when Phil came to our office and discussed his ideas for our website, he has been nothing but amazing. Communication, design and openness to new ideas is what Creative Canary do best. Their patience and guidance during our project was a wonderful comfort. Creative Canary took our website to another level and helped make this project a success.
Creative Canary have been absolutely brilliant in scoping, designing and implementing our website. The support has been amazing – we couldn’t ask for more! From the day that the concept was laid out, they were on the same page, knew exactly what we wanted and suggested various ways to achieve our goal. We couldn’t have done it without you!
A leading creative agency in Fremantle with a passionate belief that creativity and collaboration can deliver unrivalled success.
