We are the strategic creative agency behind some of the world’s most iconic active lifestyle, wellness, and natural food brands.

Behavioral research shows that people pick brands the same way they pick friends. Values, personality, trust, and a need for belonging, comfort, and delight all play into how consumers connect to brands.

From multinational corporations to local startups, we design and position brands for a lifetime of meaningful relationships.

Founding Partners: Robb Shurr & Lucia Powell

Our team of researchers, strategists, designers, and storytellers has spent decades studying consumer behavior and building brands we believe in.
