3 OMANI EVENTS
EATCO, one of Oman’s leading event managers, approached us to support 3 of its flagship food and culture events.
Muscat Eat, Oman’s National Food Festival now in its 7th year, and the first ever Burger Fest and Kids Fest. We designed them as more than just food events, developing a fun and flexible visual language to connect community, food and music across touch points.
Over multiple campaigns we combined Omani patterns, textures, and street culture. This included playful content for young and old audiences to engage with, influencer collaborations, signages and a first of its kind ‘food passport’ (a booklet designed’ to incentivise crowds to keep coming back and track the stalls they’ve visited).
The result?
Overwhelming footfall at Muscat Eat, fantastic vendor registrations in record time + climbing engagement on socials.

ART MEETS LINEN
Pomegranate Linen, a luxury home linen brand, needed a creative team to support their nuanced aesthetic + storytelling through relevant social media content.
We worked closely with them on new collection and how each piece fits into homes, parties, and daily life for clients across the globe with fine tuned photos and reels.
Our campaigns use contextualised poetry, to match the brand tone and highlight finer details approaching branding in a guarded way so as to capture the artistry with soul.
Each flower, each building, each cultural icon required a slowing down - careful crafting and creativity that works.
