WE MAKE THE THINGS YOUR BOARD WILL HATE AND YOUR CUSTOMERS WILL LOVE
ANTI-PORTFOLIO
SONIC TOOTHPASTE REBRAND
ORAL FUTURES INC. — 2024
Turned a boring oral care brand into a sensory assault. Packaging that vibrates on the shelf. Sales up 340%.
ANTI-BILLBOARD CAMPAIGN
CITY OF PORTLAND — 2024
Blank billboards with QR codes that led to a 404 page. The 404 page went viral. 2.1 million visits in 48 hours.
BRUTALIST WEDDING INVITES
SELF-INITIATED — 2023
Concrete-textured paper, exposed staples, industrial typography. The most beautiful ugly thing you have ever held.
GLITCH FASHION LOOKBOOK
WRECK APPAREL — 2023
Deliberately corrupted image files as the aesthetic. Every page is a different kind of broken. Sold out the entire collection.
NOISE RESTAURANT MENU
FRKN BURGERS — 2023
A menu designed to be unreadable. Customers had to ask staff what everything was. Average ticket time doubled. Tips tripled.
OUR MANIFESTO
GOOD DESIGN IS INVISIBLE. WE DO NOT MAKE GOOD DESIGN. WE MAKE DESIGN THAT GRABS YOU BY THE COLLAR AND REFUSES TO LET GO.
EVERY BRIEF IS A CAGE. OUR JOB IS TO RATTLE IT UNTIL SOMETHING INTERESTING FALLS OUT. COMFORT IS THE ENEMY OF MEMORABLE WORK.
WE BELIEVE THE BEST BRANDS ARE NOT POLISHED. THEY ARE HONEST. ROUGH EDGES TELL THE TRUTH THAT GRADIENTS NEVER WILL.
IF YOUR COMPETITOR CAN RUN YOUR AD WITH THEIR LOGO, YOUR AD IS WORTHLESS. WE MAKE WORK THAT COULD ONLY BELONG TO YOU.
THE HUMANS
ZARA VOLK
FOUNDER / CHIEF DISRUPTOR
Ex-art school dropout who accidentally built an agency. Believes good taste is the enemy of great work.
KODA MATSUI
LEAD DESIGNER / CHAOS ARCHITECT
Banned from three design conferences. Portfolio is a ZIP file of screenshots. Makes things that make people uncomfortable.
REN OSEI
STRATEGIST / PROFESSIONAL CONTRARIAN
Asks why until clients cry. Then asks why they are crying. Results follow.
JULES THORNE
DEVELOPER / PIXEL VANDAL
Writes CSS that breaks on purpose. Websites that work perfectly but look like they should not.
