Event attendees want unique and memorable experiences. At the interior design trade fair Habitare 2018 in Helsinki, the fair used augmented reality to place 3D models of Finnish design brand Artek's furniture in and around the space, letting visitors see what they look like in a real environment. 

Habitare is Finland's most prominent furniture, decor and design event that turned the visitor's fair experience into an adventure with the help of AR.

Aqua d'Or wanted young urban adults and digital natives to engage with their brand. More specifically, with their limited-edition holiday season product Sparkles, flavoured sparkling water. A visible campaign to spar brand engagement was needed, so what better than to organize a competition in augmented reality!

The brief "We want to immerse our young consumers in a limited-edition lottery for New Year of 2020", was agreed on. So we set out to create a unique lottery experience to reach maximum engagement in the beverage company's core audience.

Brand engagement is at its strongest when the customers connect and interact with the business. Every business's goal should be to evoke emotions in their audience, and what better way to do that than to place the audience's face to the brand content to spread the joy.

Under the Christmas of 2019, Georgian mineral water brand Borjomi launched a WebAR campaign to liven their special edition packages with a customizable AR holiday greeting.

Finnish health care company Mehiläinen and the Moomin Characters started collaborating in renewing Mehiläinen for Children's brand in February 2019. The co-operation creates a new kind of visibility into children's medical services.

Kari Hietalahti and Tommi Korpela are known for their work in the field of acting. For the past years, they have been focusing on their dear hobby: fishing. In the spring of 2020, they published a book about fly fishing.

In their nonfiction book Perhokalastuksen jäljillä (Incredible fly fishing with Tommi and Hissu), Hietalahti and Korpela dive into the world of fly fishing with the help of augmented reality.

Fiskars Village and museum area in Raseborg, Finland, have started their summer season once again. In addition to being a tourist sighting, Fiskars Village is home to over 500 people, so they wanted to tell the Village visitors more about the buildings, the people, and the history of the area.

They decided to take their storytelling to another level, and AR was their weapon of choice. Together, we created the Fiskars Village Heritage Walk.

Lappset is the leading outdoor equipment manufacturing company in the world, offering fantastic solutions for playgrounds, outdoor sports, and park furniture. With multiple product categories and tailored services, a modern tool for presenting the possibilities was needed. Lappset already had 3D models of their playground products, so we were to transform them into AR and add them to the catalogue.
