Approach
We believe that by providing opportunities for hands-on engagement and sensory interaction, we can create memorable experiences that leave a lasting impact on our audience
We specialise in creating engaging and interactive experiences designed specifically for children and families. Our creations are known for their interactive, sensory, and imaginative characteristics, blending sensory technologies with artistic flair seamlessly. Our main goal is to boost audience engagement through encouraging interaction and play, engaging all senses to craft an immersive journey. Our proficiency lies in combining traditional craftsmanship with interactive technologies to develop tangible interfaces. Our installations serve as spaces for dance, performances, storytelling, and imaginative play.
Join us on this enchanting journey as we continue to push the boundaries of interactive experiences and inspire the next generation of young minds to dream big and be curious.

“The interaction with light and music. I also like how you can feel the different textures of the coral. My daughters came on Saturday with my husband and I came back today and she showed me everything and how it worked.”
