Making sense of the world requires more than quantification. In an era of unpredictability, it is crucial to create strategic surprises and possibilities.
As generalists with a strong academic and journalistic background, we combine a broad range of qualitative and investigative approaches with a high sensitivity for culture and everyday life.
We strengthen the creative, intuitive and artistic takes on brand strategy.
How can we relate to the contemporary?
We install and maintain long term research platforms, providing valuable insights for economic, academic and creative endeavors. We conduct surveys, expert interviews, desk research and discourse analysis to validate value propositions and derive content and media strategies. All findings are documented and communicated via publication, podcast or video. For clients, and for ourselves.
How can we foster inspiring conversations?
Exposure to art and artistic intelligence helps to think across and beyond boundaries and structures. In a world that is getting more complex than ever, erratic and artistic answers on essential issues become more and more promising. We operate a gallery space, host exhibitions and conduct exclusive events with moderated talks to connect likeminded people and organizations across arts, culture and business.
What’s happening out there?
We can’t explore the world from the comfort of our desk. That is why we take research to the streets with ethnographic field trips, inspiration journeys and joint cooperations with research institutes and universities. We conduct immersive and interdisciplinary research formats, generating insights into tectonics and atmospherics that shape culture at large.
