How we work

The focus of our work is research, strategy and creative direction for cultural and commercial clients who aim to meaningfully participate in the ways our worlds are changing.

We have launched innovation labs, grant programs, conferences and reports with WeTransfer, Serpentine, SPACE10 and Samsung, developed audience strategies for Native Instruments, Capture One and The Hoxton, helped accommodate thousands of climate activists in Glasgow during COP26, brought underground jazz to a global audience during the pandemic and published critically acclaimed reports predicting the next era of the social web.

We work highly collaboratively, partnerning with organisations at eye level and bringing a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives to each project.
