After a deep dive into the science powering IRIS’s spatial audio algorithm, we established the strategy, vision, and tone of voice for the brand, positioning the company as a human-first alternative to other emerging immersive audio technologies.

By demonstrating all of the ways IRIS is working every day to ignite a movement to Listen Well—from drastically improving sound quality and dynamics to its potential for wellness, science, and sustainability—we helped take the IRIS brand from concept to market, using compassionate storytelling to attract funding and interest in its initial investment and planning phases. IRIS’s logo, palette, design, and imagery work together to evoke a modern and connected world of sound.
