It all happened in 2011.

My wife and I had just returned from a Habitat for Humanity International trip. We went on a five-day adventure to build a home for a family of four in Cambodia. Coming back, I felt motivated, inspired, and wanting to do more. Waking up and dragging myself to work was painful. I had been in the same company for almost 10 years and climbed the ladder to a senior position, but I no longer felt the need to work just for a paycheck. With the encouragement and support from my wife, I quit my corporate job, and started pursuing my passion – art. Thus,

The Orangeblowfish was born.

Within 6 months, I booked my first client – Kommune – a funky restaurant and bar in Taikang Lu, Shanghai. I initially started doing interior wall art design and installations for cafes, bars, restaurants and offices. I also participated in community art projects like DAFF, Surge, The Rotary Club and more. Within the first two years of my operation, I completed over 2000 client and personal projects covering a mix of brand strategy, graphic design, and interior wall art.

In 2014, we expanded into a three-person team and moved into our first office in Shanghai. Today we are a global team of brand strategists, story tellers and artists serving start-ups and Fortune 500 companies across F&B, beauty, retail, luxury B2B sectors on a global scale. We’re proud that the work we do, and the company culture we have created, motivates our team and clients to continue choosing to partner with us, and believing in what we do.

As my favourite saying goes,

Our Culture.

Curious

We live everyday with our eyes wide open. When we are always ready to ask “why?” or “what if?” we’ll open up new opportunities for our clients and ourselves.

Courage

We have the courage of our convictions because we know our work is based on knowledge, experience and expertise, so we’re prepared to act boldly when appropriate.

Different

We thrive on the novel and unconventional and a big plus is we won’t mince our words. We know that the best way to make a difference is by going beyond the usual.

Dynamic

We’re here to make a difference, not here to push paper around or make up the numbers. We respect each others talents, but we’re here to put those talents to work for ourselves, each other, and our clients.
