Ready to create something that matters?

      Moments, our piece for Volvo Cars, created in collaboration with New Land, was awarded two Silver Lions at Cannes Lions 2025. But more than that, it showed what’s possible when trust, ambition, and great collaboration come together.

      “We all believed in the idea and wanted to do something special. This win is a team victory.”

      Oskar Johansson - Creative Director, Volvo Cars

      Why it worked

      Because Moments wasn’t built around features. It was built around a truth: that safety isn’t always something you see – it’s something you feel. A near miss. A life quietly protected. A story that stays with you, not for what happened, but for what didn’t.

      It brought Volvo Cars’ brand promise to life. And it worked because everyone involved gave it the time, focus, and care it deserved.

      “This is proof that our model works – and that putting craft at the centre pays off.”


      Oscar Plasidius - Creative Director, Stendahls

      Every brand deserves its moment.

      If you’re ready to make yours, we’d love to talk.
