TIMEZONE ADVANTAGE

How does TDS's timezone model benefit Sydney businesses?

Sydney sits at UTC+10 (AEST) or UTC+11 (AEDT). TDS's Saigon production studio operates at UTC+7 — 3 to 4 hours behind Sydney.

When your Sydney team submits a brief at end of business, the Saigon studio picks it up at the start of their next morning. Work is completed and ready in your inbox before your first Sydney meeting — no overtime charges, no agency rush fees, no delays.

The Sydney studio manages all client communication, quality review, and strategic direction during AEST business hours. You always have a local point of contact working in your day.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Common questions from Sydney businesses

Is TDS a Sydney-based design agency?
Yes. TDS (Tokyo Design Studio Pty Ltd) is headquartered in Sydney, NSW, Australia. Our client-facing team — including your account lead, creative director, and brand strategist — operates in AEST/AEDT. For select Sydney clients, face-to-face workshops and strategy sessions can be arranged at a mutually convenient location.
How does TDS's Sydney DaaS model differ from a traditional Sydney design agency?
A traditional Sydney creative agency charges per project with variable quotes, account management layers, and scope-creep risk. TDS operates as your embedded creative department on a fixed monthly fee — unlimited requests, unlimited revisions, zero markup on hours. You get the output of an in-house team at a fraction of the cost of hiring one.
Can I meet the TDS Sydney team in person?
Yes. For Sydney-based clients on Scale and Enterprise plans, face-to-face workshops, brand sessions, and strategy reviews can be arranged in Sydney. Most work is managed through our shared digital workspace, but in-person collaboration is available when it adds value.
How much does a TDS Sydney design subscription cost?
TDS Sydney subscriptions start at AUD $3,500/month (Growth), AUD $7,000/month (Scale), and from AUD $15,000/month (Enterprise). All plans are invoiced in Australian dollars with no lock-in contracts, no setup fees, and no per-revision charges.
