Your future is at stake here.
Nordkapp Future Labs is where physical and digital prototyping shake hands with agile ways of working. The lab, run by senior designers and engineers, explores and builds new objects, concepts and spaces to learn, and quickly validate concepts with real people in real context.
The labs capabilities can easily be included into any project we are working on, including but not limited to probing new ideas, devices, service models and technologies.
Who do we work with?
It’s still the same product as before. But such a well executed design around it helps consumers to navigate and buy into the story. This we see very clearly in the sales numbers.
