Keith Bright

1932–2018

On Monday, April 9th, 2018, Keith Bright, our founder. Our mentor. Our dear friend, passed away. He leaves behind a loving family and a host of friends and colleagues, grateful for the 85 years he gave this world and the legacy he has left us all. Keith was an innovator, a category creator, a disruptor and most importantly, a creative thinker. 

Keith’s work appeared on buildings, ships, vehicles just as often as matchstick books and dog food bags - anything and everything you could imagine. His ardent passion was to elevate anything we touched, arguing that the consumer, the world, always needed better.

Six years ago, Keith stepped down from the agency, charging us with the mission of championing his name, his legacy in the twenty first century. As with most things, the company has evolved since then - New location, faces, processes and clients. But one value, the most important gift Keith has given us, remains, “When you see a good design, you feel it in your gut”. We hope to do you proud.

In loving memory,

Tuire Kontiainen, Christian Klawitter & the Bright team
