Our Work/
The industry’s best-kept secret
Since 2018, the bench has partnered with over 100 brands and agencies on over 1000 projects. In fact, there’s a good chance you’ve seen our work for the world leader in shoes and sports apparel, or maybe for a beloved global toy brand. But we often operate behind the scenes. That doesn’t mean we can’t share our work, it just means we prefer not to do it here. If you’d like to see some samples, all you have to do is ask.
In the meantime, here are a few categories where we excel.
