because each of us is very good at something.
We’re a design and communication studio. Small structure. Quick response. Warm relationship.
Sharp thinking.
We help brands and companies from all sectors achieve their goals.
In positioning. In image. In sales.
We like to get off the beaten path. Breaking stereotypes. Innovating. Surprising. We develop communication strategies and images for our clients that are unique, powerful, and set them apart. If you want to break out of “the same old story”, you would do well with us.
We’re friendly. Serious. Attentive. Generous. Professional, of course. And we love it when a client ends an email or sentence with “What would you do?”. When that happens, we’re one. That’s how we like to work.
Make demands. It’s only fair. And trust us. Together, we’ll be a one-of-a-kind team that can do it all. This is Xoo Studio.

How we work
01_Strategy
Some brands want change, but they don’t know which direction to go in. Some companies want to stand out, but they haven’t identified what makes them unique. Some products want to be sold, but they don’t connect with the people who would want to buy them. There are brands with insecurities. Corporations with doubts. Products that aren’t well defined.
At Xoo Studio, strategising is the start of any project. In this phase, we look at the goals. We integrate the strengths. We identify weaknesses and hurdles along the road. We calibrate the context. We redefine goals. We establish a hierarchy. We set deadlines. In this phase, we use our heads (and our experience).
02_Creativity
Letting the job flow from rational towards creativity. Putting the strategy into words and gestures.
At Xoo Studio we look for inspiration everywhere. The streets are inspiring. The Internet is inspiring. TV series are inspiring. Competition is inspiring. Our neighbour is inspiring. And from this inspiration comes the idea that pursues the goal. And a style is established. The right word. Colour. Shape. It all fits and is adjusted down to the last millimetre.
In this phase, we use our imagination.
03_Implementation
Returning from the realm of creativity to practicality in order to get things started. Coming back down to earth. Exchanging muses for excels. Negotiating purchases. Controlling spending.
At Xoo Studio we carry out projects that can materialise through common sense. That stick to the established budget. That are delivered on time. That have a good return. That involve the most appropriate professionals. This photographer. That illustrator. This printer.
In this phase, we use common sense and our contacts.
04_Return
Finally, it is time for the final assessment. Compiling remarks. Making note of results. Listening to opinions. Sharing anecdotes.
In this phase, we take the experience on board. And this helps us to get a bit better every day.
