Brands, founders, and marketing teams who’ve trusted Theory Dept.


I’m Dillon McIntosh, a brand strategist and designer with over a decade of experience helping businesses clarify who they are and how they show up. I’ve worked in-house at startups, inside agencies, and as a freelancer, designing everything from logos and marketing assets to identity systems, award-winning websites, and digital platforms.
Over the past 10 years, I’ve seen countless businesses struggle to build strong brand foundations. The result is often the same: missed opportunities to align with their customers, lead their market, and realise their full revenue potential.
That’s why I created Theory Dept. It connects strategy with design in a way that actually drives growth. The focus is on going beyond the visuals to solve deeper brand challenges with structure, clarity, and intent.
“I believe the best performing businesses understand that good design is what people see but strategy is what makes it stick.”
