Over the years, we've worked with big brands and bold startups, both locally and globally. We helped them tell stories through unforgettable experiences - because we believe there's a better way to connect brands and people in this increasingly virtual world. Together, we challenge the digital norm and push for a shift towards more authentic, real-world experiences.

  • Whether you're an established brand seeking to reconnect with your audience or a daring startup looking to make a splash, we align on the project foundations to achieve your goals. This shared moment gives us clarity on your needs and wants. Together, we clarify your mission, articulate your story, and identify the principles that will guide your project.

  • We believe standout experiences engage all senses, so we craft holistic solutions for all touchpoints. We reinforce your brand's positioning through compelling sensory touchpoints, innovative event concepts, and sustainable experience design. Together we experiment with materials, sounds, tastes, and scents. All while keeping a close eye on your fundamental project needs.

  • Our partnership doesn't end with a concept presentation. We help you bring your experience to life and smoothly manage every aspect of the logistics: from pre-production to on-site execution. With dedication to every detail, we work towards the day of delivery. Now we can proudly present your vision and inspire your audience to give their undivided attention to your Moment of Presence.
