about
Who are we, and what did we do before
A Chinese girl and a Brazilian guy. We came from opposite sides of the globe, and two extremes on the cultural spectrum. We are such different people that how we ended up as a team is a mystery even to ourselves. But it’s also this vast contrast that gives diversity to the ideas we create.
Ever since we met at Miami Ad School Hamburg in 2015, we have always been creative partners. Together we worked in 4 countries across 3 continents: Tokyo, Paris, New York, Düsseldorf, and then back to Hamburg. Currently, we are a Senior team at the German independent agency Jung von Matt.
Over the past years, we have been honoured to have our works recognised by awards like D&AD, One Show, Clio, Webby, NY Festival, and LIA. We have also been selected to represent Germany in different “Under 30s” creative competitions, such as Cannes Young Lions, and Eurobest Young Creatives.
If you like our work, just drop us a line :)
