Teamwork
is dream work
We believe
in beauty.
We are Depot. Creative skill + Conscious will®
At Depot we believe beautiful design should be as considered as it is desirable. While we are serious about the business of doing business, we are also serious about our business being about imagination and play, iteration after iteration. Our method of prototyping at all stages of the project journey allows for constant appraisal and refinement. These basic models develop our understanding of consumer engagement and provide valuable insight into the practical and visceral experience.
We believe in the balance of eternal idealism and real-world solutions. We have the skills and artistry to reconcile our clients’ dreams with the possibilities of the marketplace by designing responsibly.

About Angela
Depot Principal Director Angela Spindler demonstrated an affinity for the unboxing experience from an early age. She kept all of her childhood toys in their original packaging so she could have a full brand moment every time she decided to play.
During her 38 years in the design business, she has notched up almost 75,000 hours of design across four countries; England, Germany, New Zealand and Australia.
She founded Depot in 2002 and her meticulous commitment to excellence has never wavered. Her role is very hands on and she is responsible for all of the studios creative output. She believes understanding both design and production ensures the integrity of projects as well as minimising client risk. Being able to speak the printers and manufacturers language is key to the design process.
On top of a busy schedule of client work, Angela has managed to gain a Master’s Degree in design from the College of Fine Art, Sydney. She has guest lectured at design schools both here in Australia and Germany, and was a packaging design moderator for Wintec, New Zealand.
For the past 4 years she has been a Jury Member for the A’Design Awards, Como Italy. In 2022, she was awarded Designer of the Year by the International Association of Designers.
