Bio
UK graphic design studio, founded by Ian Anderson (8) on July 14th 1986, and based in Sheffield, England.
The studio name is sometimes abbreviated 'tDR', 'TDR' or even 'miTDR'. The studio closed in January 2009, though Anderson has stated that "[The Designers Republic] will go forward after this" — for instance, in January 2010, Warp Records announced that The Designers Republic had designed '[m=228099]' (Autechre's tenth album).

An archive of their work is no longer available on the 'www.pho-ku.com' website.
