We Are Extra Dollop

We’re not an agency. We’re a creative partnership, hands-on, all-in, and working with clients we believe in. No bloated teams, no watered-down concepts. Just us, two senior creatives doing the thinking, designing and building, together.

You work directly with us, from idea to identity to everything that follows.  We listen, we ask big questions, we make brave creative choices and we build the kind of brand people want to be around.  We keep it clear, collaborative, and unpretentious.

We care deeply about a brand, the people behind it, and the ripple effect of doing it well. That’s what makes us the go-to for brands with bite.

If you want work that sticks, lands, and lasts — let's go.

Who Are We?

We’re Fi and Ben O’Brien, a brand studio duo building brands that stand up and stand out, bland is not an option.  We’ve crafted cult favourite brands, launched new ventures, and put underdog brands into the spotlight across food, drink, culture, design, and independent retail.

Fi brings the strategy, voice and direction, the Special Sauce that gets to the heart of who you are and how you sound.  Ben’s the visual world-builder, turning stories into bold, joyful design that people actually remember.

Together, we’re Extra Dollop. Because whatever we’re working on, we bring more to the table; care, creativity, cultural relevance and flavour.

We’ve spent decades (yep, decades) in the game, working across branding, storytelling, illustration and creative direction.  We’ve seen trends come and go. What sticks? Brands with authenticity. Brands that feel alive. We don’t do fluff.. We do the work that makes people look twice, take notice, and come back for seconds.

Launching something new? Shaking off an old look? We’ll help you find your edge — and turn it into a cult-classic best seller.
