WORK
Every project starts with a conversation and ends with something we're proud of. Here's a look at a few of those moments.
Vendor Curation & Event Activation: The Japanese lifestyle brand came to us needing a standout moment at their LA holiday market. In a little under a week’s time, we sourced and coordinated a curated coffee experience with a local vendor partner to complete their activation.
Merch Launch & Apparel Production: When internationally recognized artist Tommii Lim was ready to launch his merch shop, he needed a team he could trust to handle it all. We managed end-to-end apparel production, order fulfillment, and store operations for his online shop at uglyfresh.com. With Tommii based overseas, we navigated the added complexity of international coordination without missing a beat and delivered a seamless launch experience for both the artist and his fan base.
Trade Show Strategy & Execution: A national apparel brand entering the trucking trade show circuit for the first time needed a seamless debut. From booth concept to on-site execution, we built out their full presence for Lot Lizards USA at the California Trucking Show in Ontario, CA. It was a strong first showing on the national stage for a brand with serious momentum.
Corporate Event Production: Renowned architecture firm, Fluidity Design Co., needed a memorable holiday party for a national team of 50+ people. With only one month to execute their vision, we managed the event from start to finish, delivering an evening to remember filled with speciality bites, a festive bar menu, DJ and of course, all the good vibes!
