Barkley is an independent creative idea company who builds whole brands for modern consumers.

Barkley is an independent, creative idea company committed to knowing the modern consumer better than anyone and on a mission to build more whole brands: brands that treat everything they do as the brand. This is done through three idea centers: strategy, design and activation. At Barkley, we know brands that stand for something greater than their bottom line — and prove it inside and out — are brands that earn a competitive advantage. We build whole brands by assessing the biggest impacts of the brand's business; uncovering the values, needs and expectations of customers, employees and investors; and building purpose-based plans that drive action across their organization to future-proof their business.
