Challenge

Tasked with bringing to life the newest addition to a prestigious luxury hotel collection, we were among the first invited on-site to reimagine the guest experience from the ground up. Embracing a sensory-led approach, we began with deep research, immersive workshops and creative concept development that unearthed a richly layered narrative. This foundation informed every detail of the experience, from interiors to the artwork, the menu design to the tableware, from the artwork to the guest communications. The result is a sensory world that guests feel deeply connected to.

What they say

“If everyone uses the same process, they get the same results. We want to be different, so we use BrandSensory, and I really enjoy the journey as much as the output.”

Challenge

The UK’s number one English Sparkling Wine Vineyard were looking to build a new hospitality and tourism destination offering but needed help to clarify the proposition and vision for the design before breaking ground. Before the first stone was laid, we partnered with their team to help crystallise the concept through a collaborative, sensory strategy workshop which laid the foundation for the entire guest experience.

What they say

“BrandSensory helped me truly visualise what we were trying to achieve with our new venture. In exploring the offering from the inside out it helped to align all the stakeholders involved.”

TAMARA ROBERTS, CEO

Challenge

This collection of eight luxury country house hotels needed to celebrate the distinct personality of each property while creating a cohesive experience across the group. We defined a unifying yet flexible brand strategy - what became their ‘golden thread.’ Through immersive sensory workshops, in-depth stakeholder interviews and research, we developed individualised narratives and brand identities for each property, rooted in place, character and emotion.

The result was a suite of tailored brand bibles, each with its own BrandSensorium® - a sensory-led guide to storytelling and aesthetics. We supported this transformation with staff immersions, brand tracking, a refreshed website, renaming, and the production of cinematic, sensory-rich brand films and photography.

What they say

“The whole process has been truly eye-opening. Never before have I felt a clearer understanding of the brands in our business, how they are different yet the golden thread that ties them together. Our teams and agencies are so well equipped now to communicate consistently. It has literally affected everything we do.”

STEPHANIE HALL, GROUP DIRECTOR OF SALES & MARKETING

Challenge

With fifty years of heritage, this family-run Sussex Country Club had become a local institution. But behind the scenes, the owners feared their chance to evolve had quietly passed by. A refreshed tone of voice, personality, visual style and set of values gave the team a renewed sense of direction.

To embed the shift at every touchpoint, we created sensory-led toolkits: moodboards, narrative films, and copywritten guidelines. That inspired fresh thinking and change across interiors, uniforms, guest communications, materials, menus and more.

Challenge

Second-generation wealth management firm were looking to develop the business to appeal to a broader, younger generation of clients. They needed some fresh thinking to create an engaging proposition, a strategic approach to their client experience delivery and a reimagined narrative that would ensure they had more modern appeal without alienating their loyal base.

What they say

“Working with Brand Sensory has been an enlightening and empowering experience from start to finish. Gerri threw herself into our project at the deep end, living and breathing every aspect of our service, from interviewing our clients to holding brainstorming workshops with our team. She has helped to bring clarity to our decision making where we had been previously getting bogged down in logistics. Thank you for your vision!”
