CLIENT BRIEF

Garmin tasked us with creating a London-based event focused on their brand ambassadors and the role Garmin products play in their lives, with a strong emphasis on female health and wellbeing. The brief called for an inspiring, high-quality experience that would resonate with both live guests and wider online audiences through ambassador content.

WHAT WE DELIVERED

We developed the theme ‘Faces of Garmin’, inspired by the idea of a living portrait gallery, showcasing real stories, real impact, and the faces behind the brand. Somerset House was selected as the venue for its elegant, gallery-style setting, perfectly aligning with the creative direction.

The event was hosted by Anna Woolhouse and Iwan Thomas, who led engaging interviews with Ant Middleton and Ben Foster, followed by a women’s health panel featuring Dr. Zoe Williams, Katie Piper and Alex Greenwood. Large-format portrait-style prints decorated the room, while Garmin’s most popular and newest products were displayed on minimalist gallery-style plinths, bringing a premium and curated feel to the space.

Seeing Garmin’s ambassadors share such personal insights, especially on female wellbeing, in such an iconic space made the day feel truly meaningful. It was a celebration of both innovation and impact, and we were proud to bring it to life.”
