Intro: Brave! Factory is an annual underground music festival that is held in an actual factory - Kyivmetrobud. Its visitors usually face two tasks: to withstand the queue and not to get lost in the incredible spaces of the plant. We were tasked with eliminating the second inconvenience.Challenges: Timing is a very important matter for the music lovers that came for them beats. It’s important not to snooze that one booming track around the toilet, bar, or in another part of the festival. To be in the right place at the right time.Solution: So, no one would walk around with a paper map, as in a water park, because it’s not eco. No one would develop and download a special app because it takes a long time and is expensive. Nowadays, everything has become super simple. We’ve created a map on Instagram for the visitors to navigate easily.  Every post is a scene that has its page in instagram with line-up, info about the artist and other fitches. READ FULL CASE: https://kontora.ltd/brave-eng/

Intro: Earthmate is an eco-festival that brings together musicians, artists, activists, entrepreneurs, researchers, and visionaries at the Grishko National Botanical Garden in Kyiv. We had the joy to develop the brand of this festival, which harmoniously intertwined ecology, sexuality, character illustration, and poems from the primer.Challenges: Depressing statistics and guilt are the manipulative dark side of the eco-movement.We faced the task to create an eco brand without the common aggressive messaging that scares off the target audience.Sloution: We are Jedi, so we talk about imminent death in a way that doesn’t frighten but inspires reflection. WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF EARTH. Though we prefer to consider ourselves friends. Unlike parents,a friend has fewer claims, requirements, and expectations. This approach was reached by using cartoonish characters and apocalyptic poems from the primer.Read the full case study here: https://kontora.ltd/earthmate-eng/
