Universal Everything

Based in a log cabin studio in Sheffield, UK, Matt Pyke is a painter, photographer, artist, curator, designer, animator, director, producer and lecturer. Universal Everything was formed in 2004 as an ever-growing collective of designers, programmers, musicians and artists.

Working with everything from pencils to generative design, Universal Everything is a diverse studio at the crossover between design and art. With commissions ranging from packaging to stadium events, for clients ranging from Apple, Audi and Nokia to the London 2012 Olympics. Our works have shown in galleries, including the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and Colette in Paris.

Matt has lectured to audiences worldwide, including D&AD President's Lecture Series, Cambridge University and Apple stores across the US.

Motivated by the pursuit of the new, creative research and development are central, leading to self-initiated pieces and unique projects for brands, galleries, collectors and consumers.

The Guardian newspaper listed the studio as one of the Top 50 designers in the UK.
