Luke Pearson and Tom Lloyd, co-founders of the award-winning design studio Pearson Lloyd, share a firm belief that their role as designers listen to the world for opportunities to improve lives.
Since founding Pearson Lloyd in 1997, the duo has established a cross-sector position built on insights from the social, economic and environmental challenges facing people across home, work and travel.
With a team of strategists and designers focus on decoding complexity to create products and experiences that balance the rapidly changing needs of user, client and planet.
Luke and Tom were awarded the distinction of Royal Designers for Industry by The Royal Society of Arts in 2008; in 2012 they were named in the top 50 designers ‘Shaping the Future’ by Fast-Co Magazine in New York; and, in 2023, their studio Pearson Lloyd was awarded ‘Designer of the Year’ by Dezeen.
They regularly serve on international design panels and juries around the world and have lectured for a number of years at ECAL and the RCA. In 2022, Luke and Tom were bestowed as Honorary Doctor of Design by Nottingham Trent University. Tom was Master of the Faculty of Royal Designers for Industry from 2021 to 2023.
