“We’ve really enjoyed working with The Big Picture on this project – you’ve been more than a research agency, you’ve been our partner in helping us get from a blue-sky innovation project to a defined concept which all our regions around the world are excited by. [You've] been a great help at the various workshops – creative yet grounded in consumer truth.”

“The Big Picture are one of the most talented, specialist design research agencies I've had the pleasure of partnering. Their outstanding understanding of - and sensitivity to - the design & creative process vs generalist agencies is exemplary. They see intelligently beyond execution and test concept and from a brand design agencies' point of view, it means we receive insightful, actionable output which informs and guides the design process. They're also fun to work with!"
