Peacham collaborates with leading nonprofits, cultural institutions, and other purpose-driven organizations. Our goal is to expand their reach with engaging, thoughtfully made products. We also publish long-form editorial content that explores a host of subjects including historic preservation, architecture, typography, and music history.
The agency takes its name from Henry Peacham, a sixteenth-century author whose book The Garden of Eloquence translated principles of classical rhetoric into the English vernacular.
Peacham was founded by Christopher Devine in 2023. To learn more, please contact us.
