we’ve done
🛒 Curiosity Cart
Like a moving ‘startup booth’ but the only thing it “sells” is playful human connection. It’s a place where people come to talk, play and connect with other curious conference attendees - on the go! It’s facilitated by a human who’s mission is to gather the crowd and guide the flow of the games. Expect serendipitous connections, light-hearted fun, and awesomeness all around.
🔈 Pimp My Bathroom
During Slush’d Heilbronn 2022 we placed wireless speakers around the bathrooms and created various immersive, playful, and random audio snippets with the help of a professional move trailer narrator. Snippets included Carl Saga’s ‘pale blue dot’, a futuristic news host announcement, and a parody motivational clip. We also decorated the bathroom with tape art and gave the urinals life with the help of googly eyes.
🔦 Project Stranger
15 minutes is an audio-guided journey where two strangers sit down in a dark room and are prompted to answer a series of revealing questions about themselves. As the minutes pass the narrator’s questions get deeper. In the end, the two strangers decide individually whether they want to reveal their identities or not.
🍄 Hungario Hunt
We were asked to design ‘something fun’ as part of a 3-day team retreat for an international climate advisory company based out of Berlin. The result? A fungi kingdom-themed scavenger hunt that got teams performing made-up theatre, counting trash cans, and taking veganism to the next level. We custom-made designed envelopes, sent pre-recorded videos to introduce the story and kept track of the game remotely in real-time. Teams would have to deliver their answers via Whatsapp in order to proceed to the next level.
Imagine arriving at the airport for a flight whose destination is unknown. Upon arrival, you must find the equally excited strangers holding bananas. These will be your (travel) partners in crime for the next 48h. Old-school envelopes and random text messages will guide your experience. You and your tribe will have to solve clues and complete a series of ridiculous challenges in the unexpected city. It’s a weekend trip like no other.
