Product Design | We design products from initial idea to the reality of manufacturing & product launch. Our team often explores product interactions and different use scenarios to discover human-centred innovation opportunities. Thus, we also involve ...deep dives, trend research or design sprints determining how products can improve user experience, market fit and brand building. Deep knowhow of material technologies (incl. a large inhouse CMF library) helps us turning these ideas into feasible outcomes.

Packaging Design | Enticing customers with delightful unboxing experiences we use our most crafty skills to design clever product packagings such as boxes, soft packs or bottles including attention grabbing graphic looks. Throughout.. we take into account factors such as ...appearance, memorability, communication, brand relevance as well as cost and feasibility aspects. Regarding the latter we can also utilise our network of manufacturers to facilitate our ideas or overcome limitations.

Brand Building | Whether from scratch or revitalised, we help to make brands iconic and relevant. Beyond the design of a brand's visual identity or campaign graphics, we can also help to develop a brand-driven product design language. Moreover, we work with ...brands on programs and initiatives utilising the power of fresh ideas, basically using social or collaborative ideation tools to grow innovative ideas from the inside of one's company.

Using creativity beyond superficial looks

We closely collaborate with client teams to ideate and co-create design solutions beyond the superficial. Variety is part of our culture, hence the exploration of new viewpoints is crucial to our approach. Holistically taking on user experience facets, life routines, art & culture, materials or technologies, we often de-construct the current reality to create a new one. Yet, we ensure our work is cohesive to our clients’ reality.

Analog & digital from vision to reality

We love off-screen time. At the heart of our work we’re mixing analog & digital creation tools facilitating a better understanding of what we design. A reality-grounded method one can touch and feel. Our cross-disciplinary team not just takes whole projects from design ideation to development to launch, but considers every tangible aspect through the eyes of the user, manufacturing and gravity of the brand.

Awards and Accomplishments

Partnering with clients all the way through..

We greatly respect the productive value of a good and lasting relationship with our clients. It is the power of collaboration and open-minds. In order to develop successful designs and deliver great quality across the whole project process we believe it is crucial partnering all the way through the project across various key touch points. We work with client teams early on to help them define their challenges or determine their brand attributes, also openly discussing obstacles or honestly clarifying required compromises. To that end we always do our best to ensure that no success-critical aspect of the mission is left unharnessed, keeping our partners transparently informed throughout every project stage.

Impeccable execution and production

We design holistically with the aim to provide universal function across various applications: Physical, digital, and spatial. In respect of the versatility of our design approach, it is also value oriented. We can flexibly adapt the quality of our deliverables or complexity of development stages to specific needs of our clients’ teams. In contrast we avoid imposing unnecessary steps in the design process. The benefit: Staying close to mutual expectations and delivering solid outcomes without added risks. From the start we care deeply about production and execution, valuing partnerships that understand the importance of investing in production as well as design.
