About FutureLabs

We believe in the power of creativity and innovation to inspire minds, behaviours and lives.

We use creative technology to motivate people to interact with cultural institutions and brands through moving encounters.

With offices in Melbourne, Auckland, Shanghai, Singapore and Ho-Chi Minh, our diverse team of creatives and technologists strive to be the best at what we do. Making the complex simple.

Our DNA

Creative thinking encompasses everything we do.
We innovate by using design principles, digital tools, and cutting-edge technologies.

It's what sets us apart.

Our approach

We believe that good design is the process in which we transfer our many values into experiences. We help our clients plan, design, and build creative experiences that imbue innovation, inclusivity and empathy.

Experiences

Interdisciplinary Innovation

Our work blurs the lines between physical, virtual and digital interaction. Our interdisciplinary team weaves people, place, story and technology together to create engaging and memorable experiences.

Digital products

Inclusive Design

By considering the diverse needs and abilities of all throughout the design process, FutureLabs builds equitable access and diverse representation into your project from the beginning.

Digital platforms

Empathetic Storytelling

We elevate histories, perspectives and personal stories through empathy. We artfully orchestrate moments, sequences, and arcs that layer emotional resonance with cognitive function.

Award-winning work

Our goal is to deliver above and beyond our clients expectations, with results in mind, not awards. But when we are awarded for innovation and effectiveness, we are extremely proud to see our work recognised on a global stage. It's a testament to the partnerships we grow with our clients and the trust built within.
