Rufus Turnbull
Creative Director & Co-Founder
rufus@thisisstudiox.com
Rufus is a Founding Director of Studio X, and provides the creative leadership behind our projects, with responsibility for all of Studio X’s strategic direction and design output.
There is not much he hasn’t been asked to create in a career spanning two decades, and divided equally between Europe and Asia, but a common thread that runs through all of his projects is a commitment to making great experiences that enhance people’s lives and to improving the performance of his client’s businesses.
Along with his experience of creating new shopping experiences, he has also designed aircraft interiors, challenged the way the airport journey works, created one-of-a-kind cinemas, master-planned indoor street food markets and developed new concepts for retail banks.
His clients have included K11, Estee Lauder, British Airways, Fred Perry, Diageo, Swire, Sony, and Ikea.
The output is always high quality and consistent and the projects are well received by both our customers and management.

Sectors
We are committed to 4 key sectors and work across the scale range in each one.
This gives us a unique perspective on our projects, understanding, for example, not only how to design a mall, but how to design the stores within it and ensure both elements are effectively designed to elevate and complement each other.
