Thinking out loud

With our Seed Design process. It’s a short, fixed sprint with the full studio: strategy, research, concept, visualisation and a working prototype. It runs for an agreed time at a fixed fee, and you get a clear list of deliverables.

Not at all. Many of our best projects started as a spark that needed shaping. Tell us who you want to reach, the place you’re working with and what you want the outcome to be, and we’ll shape the brief with you.

Our creative, technology and production teams work as one from the first conversation, so the people who shape your story are the ones who build it. We’re a curious bunch: researchers, artists, coders, sound designers and engineers who test ideas on the workshop floor before they go anywhere near your space.

Both have their place. A temporary experience creates a moment, gets people talking and tests an idea. A permanent destination becomes a place people love and return to. We design for both and we build control platforms smart and intuitive enough for a small in-house team to run a whole content programme for years.

We agree what success looks like before we design anything. That might be dwell time, footfall, repeat visits, social sharing or press coverage, depending on your goals. We build in ways to measure it from day one, so after opening you have evidence.
