How we work
Customer-centricity
We utilize design-thinking methods and versatile tools for customer understanding in everything we do, which is reflected in the particularly customer-oriented concepts we create. Thanks to our Informed Consumer study, we have a strong understanding of the values and motives of Finnish and Swedish consumers. Our design solutions are always based on a deep understanding of the target group.
Brand first
It all starts with a unified brand experience: we not only design a good-looking outer shell but we also make sure everything works in a real environment and enhances the desired brand experience. In the best case scenario, digital services complement the physical space, taking the brand to a whole new level.
Multi-disciplinary team
Our team consists of physical space and digital service designers as well as internationally acclaimed graphic designers. Every component along way comes from the same concept idea which is backed by studied consumer insight.
Typical projects
Commercial spaces and retail concepts
The core competence of our team is in designing both individual spaces as well as concepts that are implemented into several touch points. Our passion is to create spatial solutions that serve commercial goals and offer experiences where both the end-user and your staff enjoy themselves.

- Graphic design and sign design
- Digital solutions in the space

Spatial concepts, interior design, and design of office spaces
We design everything from entire office buildings to individual units of furniture. Our design is where practicality and inspiration meet. When there are multiple different types of users in one space, it is critical to take different needs into account early on in the design process. We bring the brand’s soul into all kinds of spaces.
