About us

WE ARE AN INDEPENDENT CREATIVE NETWORK FOR THE WORLD’S MOST AMBITIOUS BRANDS AND PEOPLE.

We're proudly Australasia’s leading independent creative company with offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland, Wellington, Tokyo, Los Angeles, New York and London.

Leaving the big agency world behind, we back ourselves to set a new standard for our industry and we embrace a more human way of working, thinking and making. Less ego, more respect. No closed walls, more open doors. We work collaboratively to shape brands from the inside out. Marrying thoughtful strategy, communication and design we create experiences that don't just get the job done – they work to make a real and positive impact.

Purpose
We are big believers in purposeful brands. Ours is simple. We work to make things that matter – to consumers, commerce, culture and careers. Special proudly doesn’t fit in any box easily – being part consultancy, part ad agency, part design firm, part innovation hub and working across brand creation, experience, design, digital, innovation and communication.

Values
Being brave, open and kind. These values guide us every day. We don’t just talk to them or advertise them but actively try and live them every day.
