Special Projects is a design and innovation studio based in London, creating globally. Our team of researchers, designers, storytellers, and magicians invent strategic design visions and user experiences.
Our mission is to enhance the unquantifiable aspects of life: empathy, wellbeing, and delight, through meaningful design and invention. To achieve this, we leverage human insight, technology, and the thought process of magicians.
Rigorous research, combined with our optimistic approach, brings magic, delight, and a distinctly human quality to some of the most challenging problems. This not only creates value for our clients but also adds meaning to the lives of the people we design for.
