about

We are an international qualitative research agency specialising in innovation and sensory research.

We bridge the gap between marketing and R&D exploring the interplay between product, brand and packaging.

We decipher how consumers read products – the story a product communicates about itself; the sensory brand.

We believe brands are created on a holistic journey between what we sense for ourselves and the story we are told.

How consumers interpret the physical properties of the product.
How product experience impact behaviours and emotion.
How the narrative of packaging and communications meets product expectations and consumer need spaces.

services

Our work spans the globe, from Shanghai to Sao Paulo – investigating cultural nuance in sensory brand interpretation.

We offer expertise in

New Product Development (NPD), Early Stage Innovation, Consumer Journeys, Sensory Development, Sensory Brand, Co Creation and Communications Testing.
We love creativity!

We design bespoke research programmes centred at delivering both actionable insight and high consumer engagement. Research should be fun.

With methods including focus groups, ethnographic film, consumer diaries, creative workshops and stakeholder workshops.
We embrace technology!

With the average Briton spending more time online than they do sleeping¹, its increasingly important to adapt research methods to consumer behaviours.
