Experts in creating consumer desire, brand icons and business growth
With diverse experience across markets, sectors, and price points, we design for both immediate impact and long-term strategies, helping clients navigate the next year and plan 10 to 20 years ahead.
Future Context & Insight
With the future in mind we demonstrate to our clients how to plan for changing landscapes of engagement, technology and behaviours. It could be as part of a design project due for product launch in a year or two, or it could take shape as a strategy document that shapes the future design direction for the business.
Product & Industrial Design
Designing for Consumer Tech, Healthcare or Telecomms, our approach is the same. We start with the desires of the consumer, the needs of the business and the ambitions of the brand and build a platform from which we can create the 3D embodiment of all three assets. All our design is underpinned by rigorous engineering and prototyping, meaning that we are able to support our clients right up to and including production.
Packaging Design
Always leaning into context and insight means that we are able to create previously unoccupied space on shelf, surprising and delighting clients and consumers with packs that attract and engage the senses. All our design is underpinned by rigorous engineering and prototyping, meaning that we are able to support our clients right up to and including production.
Brand & Design Language
We create rigorous, future facing playbooks across Form, CMF and Assets to enable internal design to work consistently to a brand & design language across all functions, with relevance and sensitivity, ensuring market stand-out and reinforced presence. On-boarding is always a delight, with internal teams engaging immediately, and brands reporting huge commercial gains.
Luxury
Our 20 year history has involved the luxury sector from the beginning so we have learned the nuances and unique desires, of the consumers, brands and businesses, both present and future, operating in this sphere. We have built a network of material and craft suppliers and specialists meaning we can translate almost any desire into a make-able and highly desirable work of art.
Sustainability
As future context readers and writers, we have an immense interest in and knowledge of current sustainability thinking and materials and the materials and processes predicted to overtake them. We understand that our clients have different ways of approaching this subject but believe that we are all aiming for the same target - to find ways of leaving less trace on the Earth whether this means a tweak to material or process or a radical re-think in design for disassembly.
Design for Manufacture
All our work is backed up by detailed computer modelling, creating the technical foundations for manufacturing support and meaning that we never present our clients with a concept that hasn’t been proven and that our amazing ideas are often put into production without changes.
