Creamer and Lloyd

What inspires us

Everything we experience forms a part of who we are and what we do and therefore what we offer.  We rely heavily on the arts to inspire us and this is critical to us as individuals as well as a business.

Everyone at Creamer and Lloyd has their own budget for research and inspiration.  On a regular basis we share on our website the best experiences we’ve had.

  1. The Big Lunch

    An amazing community initiative which we did on Queens Head Street in Islington.

  2. Canon 5D Mark II

    A stills camera that also shoots video. It is a thing of beauty (in the hands of the right people).

  3. Laura Marling at Latitude

    Apart from her staggeringly beautiful songs (and singing), one moment: Asking for some crowd participation in the form of whistling, she issued a caution, "I should warn you I am a phenomenal whistler." And she was and is.

  4. Chor Bazaar, Mumbai

    We walk in to shops where Ollie hasn't been for a year. And it's as if they've been waiting for him all this time. Not a beat is missed, conversations resume, chai is brought out. The thread of the relationship is not broken by distance or time.

  5. The Times of India newspaper

    In the UK we've lost the excitement of language. In India almost every article I read relished the telling. This wasn't oneupmanship by a writer, this was endemic.

  6. Loch Sunart: Room 13 Summer School

    Low tide would reveal a golden kelp. But I didn't know there were so many golds. Every day I waited for the water to go.

  7. Grandmaster Flash at Lovebox

    In a haze of sunshine Grandmaster Flash proved he was still as cool as ever. Every tune elicited a roar of approval as we revisited hip-hop anthems. Left tired and happy with the grime of East London between our toes.

  8. Imogen Heap at WOMAD

    Flowers, feathers, a perspex baby grand, strange intimate chats with the audience and then a voice which left us reeling and heart struck.

  9. Bob Dylan live at the Hop Farm

    69 and still singing and growling. He strung out sentences and beat up the rhythm. So his lyrics stumbled along almost out of sync. This was sheer artistry.
