Pierrepont Hicks is an independent design consultancy.
We know where things are made. We know who makes them well.
The practice works with brands seeking clarity: a new direction, a considered refresh, or a foundation built from the ground up. The process is unhurried and direct. Every project is handled personally.
At the center of the work is a network of more than 1,500 American designers, makers, and manufacturers. This access is the result of years of relationships built with care, and it informs every recommendation made on behalf of a client.
Services are offered across brand identity, product development, domestic sourcing and manufacturing, interior design, and creative direction. The scope is shaped by what a project requires, nothing more.
