ATTIK was founded by Sommerville and Needham in Sommerville's grandma's attic bedroom Huddersfield England, with the help of a £2,000 grant from
Prince Charles'
The Prince's Trust. The San Francisco studio continued to serve as Scion's advertising
Agency of Record in the U.S, and ATTIK Leeds partnered with Coca-Cola on series of
brand and design initiatives. In 2012, Sommerville decided to leave the business, citing “a lack of alignment of strategic thinking”, and the company's UK operations were wound down. In April 2015 it was announced that the company would be absorbed by Dentsu following the loss of the long-running Scion advertising account, effectively bringing an end to ATTIK's existence after 29 years of operation == Notable clients ==
