Paradigm means “example”, “model”, or “benchmark” and, for more than three decades, our work has been the benchmark for creative excellence in Japan.
30+ years
We’ve been in business for more than 30 years, which means we’ve survived the bursting of Japan’s asset price bubble, the dot com crash, the Lehman shock, the Great East Japan Earthquake, and the coronavirus pandemic. So, you can be sure that we partner with our clients for the long term.
Diverse team
From Belgium to Brazil and South Africa to Scotland, people from more than 30 countries — including a foundational team of employees from Japan — have worked at Paradigm since we first opened our doors. It’s our cultural and educational diversity that’s key to our creativity, productivity, and longevity.
Commercially focused
We know that our clients come to us because they want to see growth in their business, not simply design for design’s sake. So, our attention is always on helping you achieve successful business outcomes.
No salespeople
We don’t have a team of salespeople pounding the pavements of Tokyo or cold calling random companies just to hit their targets. Our reputation, and a long list of satisfied customers, continue to bring us exciting projects.
No (nasty) surprises
Our leadership team is involved in every project from the start. This means we take the time to fully understand the scope of work of each project and our clients’ expectations so that we produce accurate and fair estimates and everyone is clear about what we will produce.
