Under the microscope

A closer look at how attention to words, context, and behaviour changes what’s possible.

Every project starts with a problem that needs untangling

This selection shows some examples where we worked alongside clients to bring clarity, alignment and confidence to the communication that mattered most to them.

When precise design in layout became critical to meaning

What happened when people were invited into the change, not told about it

Accessibility doesn’t have to mean compromise. This case study shows how relocating an international conference expanded participation, strengthened engagement and set a new precedent for future events.

Producing media that did more than fill space

When many voices shape one project, clarity matters. This case study shows how a complex outdoor media production aligned diverse interests—while staying true to place, people and experience.

What became clear once we stopped assuming sameness

Product naming for global audiences demands more than creativity. This case study shows how research-led decisions delivered a name that was culturally aligned, emotionally resonant and ready to travel.

Strengthening human connection where it mattered most

When capable people stop having the conversations that connect their work, performance suffers. This case study shows how an international medical college improved outcomes by creating better conditions for dialogue.

We turned friction into forward motion

Each of the projects above started with a knot to be untangled. A message that wasn’t landing. A process that confused rather than aligned. This selection shows how close attention to words, context and behaviour helped turn complexity into something people could actually work with.
