About
Europa is a graphic design company based in London and run by Mia Frostner and Robert Sollis, both graduates of the Royal College of Art. Gareth Lindsay joined the studio in 2013 and Lauren Budestschu in 2015. We create graphic identities, books and publications, exhibition design, signage, art direction, editorial design and websites. Alongside our studio practice we run the second year of the BA Graphic Design course at Camberwell College of Arts.
