About

I’m Liam Hollingham, a Design Director and creative leader at The Ready House, where I guide multidisciplinary teams to turn brand strategy into cohesive identity systems and real-world experiences. With more than a decade of experience across architecture, retail, hospitality, and placemaking, I help organisations connect culture, space, and business—covering everything from concept through to launch and growth.

I manage teams of up to 25 creatives on complex international projects, and I partner closely with clients to scale brand output and commercial performance. Highlights include scaling a national gym brand from 6 to 40+ locations in 12 months, launching multiple high-rise residential developments in West London, and delivering brand and retail experiences for 30+ independent retailers.
