Kingston's accountants for the creative community
Kingston is a historic market town, famously the coronation site of seven Saxon kings, and today it has one of the strongest creative communities in outer London. Kingston School of Art has been training designers, illustrators and makers for over a century, and many of its graduates stay local, freelancing or building studios in Kingston and across Surrey.
That’s our client base here.
From our Princeton Mews office we work with photographers, designers, makers, illustrators and creative freelancers at every stage: registering as a sole trader after graduation, going limited when the work takes off, and taking on employees when a one-person studio becomes a company.
Kingston is our head office and the base for most of the WallsMan Creative team. Our second office is at Somerset House in central London, and between the two we support creative businesses across London, Surrey and the rest of the UK.
