Steelcase is the global workspace leader, in business to unlock human promise through workspace products and applications. Workspace Futures is the strategic insights group at the heart of the company, an experienced group of researchers, strategists and futurists who anticipate future markets and identify new opportunities. BravoEcho was asked to help create, and to visualize, a manifesto articulating their role and its impact on the success of not just Steelcase, but on all of the company's clients. We conducted a series of in-depth interviews and working sessions to uncover the team’s best potential positioning within the Steelcase ecosystem, and for external audiences. This work led us to a declarative and differentiating narrative....

Designtex is a materials science innovator with a clientele of architects and designers. They asked us to be their partner in launching Casper™ Cloaking Technology, a revolutionary architectural film for glass walls in workspace environments. Our simple yet human positioning focused on the idea that Casper is an ingenious shield that protects intellectual property while keeping people’s behavior transparent. The campaign played off the idea of ‘cloaking’, with lighthearted, sci-fi-flavored creative including a brand film, digital, social, and email, web and a brochure. With a modest media spend, the work exceeded established campaign goals, delivering 25,000 visitors to the site, nearly 9.5MM total impressions, 0.27 CTR and a 1.7% conversion rate over three months....

When Steelcase started, at the beginning of the 20th Century, it made a name in the U.S. Midwest for durable office furniture. Today, when you can carry your office on the smartphone in your pocket, the company has become a global thought-leader on work and workspace. To celebrate the company’s centenary, Steelcase CEO Jim Hackett asked us to articulate his vision for the Information Age. We identified the core idea that had driven the company’s success – Unlocking Human Promise – and made it the centerpiece of a company manifesto. Our Story is a three minute film that gave life to the manifesto. The film was seen by everyone in the culture, all over the world....

Steelcase is a US-based global company designing work space, furniture, and technology for business, education and healthcare. Insight-led innovation has made it a thought-leader on work collaboration. 2012 marked its 100th anniversary, and CEO Jim Hackett asked us to help position the company for the next century. We created a company manifesto in the form of a storybook and three-minute animated film, and a multimedia social initiative discussing the future of work. This discussion began with the "dreams" of children from around the world, captured in a documentary film.  A web platform for the debate - "100 Dreams, 100 Minds, 100 Years" - went live at the TED conference that March.   Learn more about our anniversary work and approach....

In 1987 our client Steelcase meticulously restored the Meyer May House, a Prairie-style Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece. The home's 100-year anniversary was placed at the heart of a strategy to generate discussion of "The Next 100" for Steelcase. We designed a website to showcase the house through the lens of Wright's principles, a digital advertising campaign, and communications including a new identity and collateral materials. All in support of a symposium called "A critical dialogue on 21st-Century Architecture and Design and the ongoing relevance of Frank Lloyd Wright," which explored Wright's design principles created 100 years ago and brought the Master himself into a dialogue about the future.   Learn more about our anniversary work and approach....

Our long-standing client Steelcase is a global thought-leader in the world of work and workspace. In collaborating on the company’s centenary campaign, CEO Jim Hackett asked us to envision the hundred years ahead. The campaign theme was Unlocking Human Promise, and we proposed a film in which 10-year-olds around the world would imagine the future they would inhabit. We shot in Mexico City, Munich, Capetown, Mumbai, Shanghai and Denver with Oscar-winning director Daniel Junge, and cut a 17 minute documentary. The film, One Day, launched a social campaign in which thought leaders and the public also shared their dreams of the future....
