50% Form. 50% Function.

Why the name Surface 51?

Glad you asked—everyone does. The name SURFACE 51 relates to our firm’s ethos:
Every successful marketing plan must have a balance of both form and function. But as a firm
of highly visual people—and because first impressions can be everything when it comes to your business's ability to stand out—we’d give a slight edge, an extra 1%, to the surface.
Hence the name: SURFACE 51.*

* This is the answer that we’ve come to give. As an agency that’s very good at making something out of nothing, and because we get asked this question a lot, we manufactured this answer. There’s actually a much simpler answer. Ask us in person some time.
