Steve Harvey
Our co-founder, Steve, is always looking to get involved with projects that impact the world or a company’s culture.
For over three decades, Steve has helped shape brands, name products and businesses, and find opportunities for companies to transform themselves.
How did he get here?
Steve learnt the ropes in 1988, working for a London-based design agency. There, he learnt the whole creative process – from the initial concepts to getting work out the door.
Since then, he’s led other agencies before co-founding Fabrik, helping businesses like Barclays, Cable and Wireless, and Royal Scottish Insurance to define and develop their brands.
From housing associations to technology companies, Steve enjoys projects where he can help completely revitalise a brand from the ground up – like Salad Money and Sight Scotland.
Aside from brand strategy and naming, Steve has also been the co-owner of multiple businesses – helping tourism in Scandinavia, developing a journal for radio, managing the naming portfolio for an eCommerce venture, and giving editorial input for a wireless audio review site.
Steve shares his enthusiasm and knowledge of the brand naming process through regular contributions to Brand Fabrik, our online publication relevant to anyone in the branding and creative services sectors.
What drives Steve?
You only need to look at the businesses that Steve has helped run to get a glimpse at his personality. Music. Beautiful scenery. And cutting-edge technology. If it’s a hobby – it’s also a business opportunity.
But aside from being a savvy strategist, Steve is a musician. He started playing the drums, then bass (but not drum and bass). Nowadays, you’ll find him with one of his sons at a football match or looking up at the stars.
We expect he’ll start up a spacefaring sports club in no time.
