WELCOME TO NO THANKS
WELCOME TO NO THANKS
A design and brand studio dreamt up under overpasses, onstage, and behind the merch table.
Get to know us
No Thanks is a branding and design studio rooted in music, street art, and the belief that creativity should stay playful — not performative. Founded by Jake Anderson and Dylan Swindell — a musician and a graffiti artist who both found their way to design and made a home somewhere between its colors and shapes. We bring 25 years of experience, curiosity, and quiet confidence to everything we make. From bands and record labels to small businesses and independent creators, we design brands, merch, and visuals that connect with people — no fluff, no hustle, just honest creative design that works.
Stuff we do
Brand
We dig deep to uncover what makes you different — your story, your rhythm, your personality. From logos and color palettes to full identity systems, we create brands that connect emotionally and function practically. Built with intention, shaped by instinct, and finished with the ease that only comes from experience.
Design
From album art to posters, print to packaging, digital assets to title sequences, we craft visuals that move people. We mix analog texture with modern design sense, using intuition and experience to bring ideas to life. The process stays relaxed, collaborative, and human — because creativity doesn’t need pressure to work, it just needs space.
Merch
Great merch tells a story and feels lived-in from day one. We design pieces that people keep, wear, and connect with — art that just happens to be on a shirt. Whether for bands, brands, or creative businesses, our approach stays grounded in authenticity and craft. Made to turn heads, start conversations, and stay in rotation.
Creative Direction & Consulting
We help artists, labels, and small businesses shape visuals that feel cohesive without losing their soul. If you’re unsure where to start, we make it approachable. If you’re overflowing with ideas, we help you focus them. We don’t chase trends — we guide you toward the version of your brand that feels right, and we do the work to make it real.
