Agency

A cooperative creative agency for non-destructive companies and organisations

About

We use strategy, design, and creativity to emphasize and promote agendas of solidarity

Public Service was founded by Sophie in 2022. After almost 10 years in the established design and advertising industry, personal values could no longer be ignored.

Design and creativity have the power to change and influence opinions, behaviors and ideas.

As creatives and designers, we must take on the responsibility of promoting a world which we stand behind, not just as professionals but as people.

Public Service is a creative cooperative of specialized generalists. We geek out on how to use our skills and crafts to promote a world worth promoting.

We service non-destructive clients

This (thankfully) means, that most of our clients are NGO's, associations, social, activist, and cultural companies and organizations.

With our own youth spent in underground and adult worklife spent in corporate machines, Public Service is a spicy cocktail of progressive idealism and structured organization.

Magda is from Czech Republic, but quickly became a Copenhagen local legend. Disco parties, island festivals spiced with international business studies and activist entrepreneurship.

Office Director

Nathalie Golde Sørensen

Nathalie never accepted the shit of corporate, capitalistic, and greedy agendas. That's why we knew she was a fit.

Anne Katrine Raahede

Special interest is knowledge. Which, as AK says, is nothing but gossip about the world.

Social Director
ak@publicservice.group

Oskar Martinussen

Enthusiastic gamemaster, hater of metro crowds, and always in the middle of learning something new.

Digital Director
oskar@publicservice.group

Sophie Gevind

Autistic anarchist with strategy, stories, words, and creativity as special interest. Always preaching and infodumping on the responsibility and power of design and creativity. Can be slightly annoying.

Process

We use strategy, design, and creativity to emphasize and promote agendas of solidarity and responsibility.

Few cannot know for many. Therefore, we always assign dedicated teams to our projects. Teams that are a combination of ourselves and other independent creatives (who we find via open calls). We seek compositions with personal insights and meaningful motivation for what we do.

We think this makes sense.

Our method is called fine, define, design. If we are going to work together, you’ll hear a whole lot more about it.

Find is all about questions, looking, gathering.

Define is where we formulate, see the patterns, and set the brief.
