WHO WE ARE

Truant is an independent creative studio run by Nathan Lewis and Nicole Corley. We’re always looking for a reason to make fun stuff. We’ve worked all over tarnation sharpening our wits on big brands and small startups. Now, we’re doing our own thing from Austin, TX (or maybe, a cabin in the woods). We always work closely with our clients – sometimes from very far away.

WHAT WE CAN DO

If you’re an agency in a fire drill, we’re on it. If you’re a guy with an idea, we can help make it a thing. If you’re a brand that wants to be a cooler brand, we can help with that, too. And if you care about awards, we have shiny trinkets like Clios, Effies, and Addys in a box somewhere. We’ll bring smart, scrappy content creation, big platform ideas, or a fresh look and feel. Tell us what you want, and we’ll show you what we’ve got.

TESTIMONIALS

I wanted to let you know how impressed the team has been with your work! I received such great feedback from everyone during our internal debriefs, and lots of messages about how excited the team is with the new logo and how happy they are with y’alls work.
 

I was so impressed with the amount of detail that went into the work and that y’all always take the extra step while remaining nimble and agile to feedback - I know it’s hard to do that as a creative team (I have worked with plenty!) but both of you really balance taking in feedback/suggestions while still pushing back to keep strategy at the core.

Director of Partnerships, Aiwyn

Nathan captured exactly the idea and vibe I had in mind for The Coffee Cart Café & Espresso Catering: fun, feminine and with a touch irony. I wanted branding that would immediately make people happy and put a smile on their face and Nathan delivered that perfectly. People love the branding and instantly recognize us by our fancy monkey. It’s become a key part of who we are how customers remember us. 

 

What’s more, Nathan was ahead of his time. Pink is now everywhere in specialty coffee branding, but he had the vision to use it before it became the trend. His creativity, professionalism, and timely delivery made the entire process smooth and enjoyable.
