Start with good data.

Add smart creative.

Change the world.

Welcome to Wellington’s largest independent creative agency. This is a place driven by data. That means we use ones and zeros to get to the heart of your problem. That problem then gets an original solution, something human and meaningful, that will hopefully change your world. We love what we do and hope you do too.

Women’s Refuge

FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN NEED

We’ve helped launch some of Fix & Fogg’s most popular products.

We set our sights on the competition to show New Zealanders that they deserve better from their power company.

City Gallery Wellington

Probably the most honest campaign by any art gallery ever.

To promote Nura's partnership with the All Blacks we took a unique approach; show as little of the players as possible.

EightyOne loves DOT loves data

DOT is our secret sauce that enables us to identify, access, and understand the data that relates to your problem. This is the fuel for insight-driven creative exploration, challenged assumptions, and asking the right questions to get us to an effective and simple outcome.

Introducing EightyOneX

We're saving this spot for you.

Here's how we made Powershop one of New Zealand’s most loved brands.

NZ Olympic committee

After a COVID disrupted year, we were tasked with rallying support for our athletes in Tokyo.

1 million hits, thousands of comments, and banned four times for hurting the feelings of Donald Trump.

The dinner party

After launching Powershop's new brand platform, we set our sights on the competition. It was time to re-establish Powershop as the dominant challenger in the market.

IN CONSIDERATION

Rename The Basin

Coverage of women’s sport in New Zealand is a joke. And not in a funny way. We changed that overnight.

The Wellington Effect inspires and invigorates all those who visit.

A six foot tall squirrel. A daring escapade. And a mystery that made it all the way to national TV.

We helped an Italian fashion brand connect with the All Blacks, and capture some of their mystique.

Working in partnership with Māori

When it is important to reflect Te Ao Māori in our projects, working with good partners is our secret to success.

To commemorate New Zealand’s inspired thinkers we had to think outside the square. Literally.

Gift a Safe Night

By developing a radical new approach to fundraising we helped Women’s Refuge to their most successful year ever, providing over 290,000 women and children with a safe place to stay.

In just 18 months

IN MONEY RAISED YEAR ON YEAR

Over the last three years we’ve helped Te Papa launch some of their biggest exhibitions.
