IMPRESSIVE HANDS-ON CREATIVE EXPERIENCEs WITH MICROSOFT, anywhere in the world.
Our studio brings interactive experiences to events globally. We’ve worked with Microsoft for over a decade, creating beautiful, deeply engaging experiences on Microsoft hardware and software. We’re reliable, headache free, and play well with other partners and agencies. We can further customize our experiences to incorporate a specific Microsoft product, or even a Microsoft partner’s software. FAQs at the bottom.
Surface Laser Dessert Design BaR
Guests use Surface and Microsoft Designer to illustrate a design which is then laser-caramelized onto gorgeous French macarons. The caramelizing gives off a toasted marshmallow aroma, which adds to this multi-sensory experience.
3D Printed Nail Art Experience
Guests use Surface to design 3D nail art, watch as they are printed live, and then sit with an aesthetician to have them professionally applied, all done right on-site.
Microsoft Designer Embroidered Selfie Socks
Guests take their selfie, and then watch as our impressive commercial embroidery machines transforms them into sock form! Each guest gets a custom pair of socks, emblazoned with their recognizable selfie. This is a super fun one!
Microsoft ADVANCED MANUFACTURING 3D PRINTING EXPERIENCE
Guests are guided through designing and 3D printing using a Microsoft and Adobe technology stack. Everything is printed live on-site, and given to guests as a keepsake desk artifact.
Edible Selfie Photo Booth
Guests step into our photo booth where they'll find a professional ring light and white backdrop. They snap a selfie, then watch as their pics are laser-caramelized into gorgeous french macarons while they watch the action. A sight to see, and also a delight to smell as the sugars are caramelized.
FAQs
We’re Client-Safe.
We’re adults, and very lovely ones. We’ve been in the business for over a decade and our instincts are great. You can put us in front of clients without worry.
All we need is power and Space.
Our activations require one or two standard dedicated 15amp 110v power circuits available at all venues. We ask that you provide table-space or the equivalent to one or two common 4’ or 6’ wide standing height bar tables.
We Provide All Staffing.
We provide all the staffing required to run our experiences, typically 3 to 6 engaging designers. Our staff can deliver sales messaging, or can coordinate with the client’s sales teams to strategically hand-off leads.
Our pricing is always all-in.
We charge on a project basis. There are never any overages or surprises. We take care of our equipment, guest experience, consumables, branded packaging, and our travel. We do ask that you handle any venue/union related fees, but we rarely trigger such fees as we bring our equipment into venues by hand.
6 weeks lead-time
All pricing is based on 6-weeks lead-time from signing our SoW and making a 50% deposit. We can do shorter timeframes, but we’ll need to add some budget to cover increased shipping, sourcing, and staffing costs.
