A digital agency Established in London, with offices in Portugal, France, Spain, Germany, Italy and New York. “A site made out of chocolate. Sagres is Portugal’s no 1 beer brand. This fall it launched Sagres Preta Chocolate, a stout beer with a chocolate flavour. What is more suited to launch it than on a site made entirely out of chocolate? We did just that. With the help of Maître Chocolatier Victor Nunes, renown in Portugal for his sculpture made out of chocolate, we designed and produced an interactive site made 100% out of chocolate.

Oleg Dou: CUBS

28 Sep


“A modern interpretation of an old practice, ‘cubs’ by moscow-based photographer Oleg Dou is a series of images that draw from the aesthetic and ambience of child funeral portraits. Utilizing a muted palette with a stark backdrop, the porcelain-like subjects are morphed to display discerning features of various animals, such as a set of slender antlers for ‘fawn’ and perked-up ears in ‘rabbit’. The result is a whimsical collection of portraits that play into the innocent adolescence of the characters while still maintaining an eery sense of death and mortality”.

Carl Warner: Food photographer

27 Sep


The ‘Foodscapes’ are created in Carl’s London studio where they are built on top of a large purpose built triangular table top. The scenes are photographed in layers from foreground to background and sky as the process is very time consuming and so the food quickly wilts under the lights. Each element is then put together in post production to achieve the final image.
