Strong design without the sugar-coating — just creative work that cuts through.

Who Are We?

With a combined 40+ years of experience, PKO (Pop the Kettle On) isn’t your average design agency. We specialise in brewing bold, beautiful branding — from logos and print to full-blown digital identities. Our work is modern, intentional, and built to make your business stand out (and stay remembered).

Branding & Logo Design

We don’t just slap a logo on it and call it a day. We build brands with brains, backbone, and a bit of bite. Bold looks. Big impact. Brewed properly.

Web Design & Development

Good websites don’t just sit there looking pretty, they pull their weight. Ours are fast, clever, scroll-stopping machines. Built to convert. Easy to love. Even easier to click.

Graphic Design & Content Creation

We design the kind of visuals that do the talking for you, loud, proud, and always on-brand. From packaging to posts, we make eyeballs stop and heads nod.

SEO & Content Writing

We don’t do boring blogs or robot copy. Just smart, cheeky content that ranks well and actually gets read. Search-friendly? Yes. Soul-crushingly dull? Absolutely not. Your brand deserves better.

Not Your Average Brew

These legends knew weak branding wasn’t going to cut it.
So we brewed something stronger. Full-bodied. Impossible to forget.

The YarnsMen;

Men’s mental health made visible; we designed an identity that’s approachable and proudly worn.

Lumi

We built the identity, logo, and product visuals to give Lumi a fresh, confident presence in New Zealand kitchens.

KitDrop

Where football nostalgia meets modern resale; we crafted the brand for this marketplace of rare and vintage shirts.

“Original and with an innate understanding of their customer’s needs, the team at Love Nature are always a pleasure to work with.”

About Us

Bold brands, brewed to perfection.

Let’s be honest — a good product’s not enough anymore. Everyone’s got one.
What you need is a brand that’s brave enough to stand out and beautiful enough to stay remembered.
We design the kind of visuals that stop the scroll, start conversations, and stick in people’s minds.

Meet The Team

John

The man behind the brew. John’s the creative force that keeps PKO bubbling with ideas. With two decades of design know-how and a knack for turning half-baked briefs into fully brewed brilliance, he leads every project with strategy, style, and a splash of humour. If he’s not sketching, he’s probably making tea (again).

Shelby

Shelby keeps morale high and meetings short. She’s the heart of the office, the first to greet guests, and the last to give up the tennis ball. Between naps and zoomies, she ensures the team stays balanced, inspired, and well-supervised. Good vibes only — and maybe a few biscuit crumbs.

Bones

Quietly confident, endlessly creative, and allergic to bad typography. Bones is the detail guy — the one who turns “that’ll do” into “that’s perfect.” He brings a sharp eye and calm energy to every project, ensuring every pixel, print, and post looks as good as it performs. Coffee-fuelled and concept-driven, he’s the backbone of PKO’s design magic.
