Brand Toys
Brand Toys is something completely new when it comes to brands and the characteristics that make them unique in everyone's perception. It is a magic tool that makes a customized toy out of brands, each with their own colours, logos, features. How does it do that? The Brand Toys engine analyses intricate data from Millward Brown’s BrandZ survey and social media inputs - very complicated stuff.It is a highly technical project, with a kick-ass 3D engine that lets you spin up and down and 360 those branded foxes, monkeys and whatnot as if you had them in the palm of your hand. You can look through the existent toys, create your own toy and of course you can have it built in real life! Brands have never been so fun.

Primary Languages
Hola, bonjour, nǐ hǎo and much more is what we learnt working on this project with the clever people at BBC Learning. The idea was to create a set of tools to make learning languages more fun, so we created a series of games that help the kids test their knowledge of Spanish, French and Mandarin. The games are built in different ways in order to focus on different areas of each language - grammar, syntax, vocabulary - and they all feature funny families of different nationalities.

Adobe Museum of Digital Media
Once every now and then we get chances to work on projects that challenge us. Projects that aren’t about selling cars but instead try to educate people. This project isn’t really trying to educate anyone, but it’s exciting for other reasons. We helped with Unit9 and Goodby, creating a space where artists can create digital work for a digital world and at the same time having it be accessible enough for the average user.

Simple Machines
The Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago wanted a fun way for children to learn about physics and simple machines. So we decided to have as much fun as possible with it!
It’s the story of Twitch, the squishy orange museum helper, that needs to find spare parts for his grumpy Boss to repair the broken robot. But Twitch is so lazy and would rather sleep at night, so he could use the help of some simple machines that would make his quest easier…
