The Attik, a worldwide design agency, has opened offices in Sydney, Australia to create a stronger global presence. In the past two years, the company has also launched U.S. offices in New York and San Francisco. The new office in Sydney will be headed up by Simon Needham who will relocate to Australia with a number of other colleagues from the London, U.K. home office. “This is a natural progression for us. We are a global design company. With our move to Sydney, we will have access to the Australian-Asian market, as well as servicing our existing clientele who have an international presence,” explains Needham. The Attik hopes to have a locally-recruited staff of twenty including production, design, sales and administrative personnel, in place by June 1999.
