Placemaking

overview + case studies
Made by Example

Aesthetics and trends can only take you so far. Without a cohesive, compelling strategic foundation, the identity and relevance of a place is bound to fade as the world moves forward. At Example, we start with your destination’s story—one rooted in history, community and experience. Through this, we don’t just help you create a world-class brand, we set the foundation for your long-term cultural and commercial success.

Built to belong

We shape spaces with identity, purpose, and cultural relevance—creating places that feel lived-in, authentic and engaging from day one.

Immediate impact

From concept to experience, we craft destinations that don’t just open, they make an impact—full of life, stories and unforgettable experiences from day one.

Crafted by experts

We connect brands with the right people, partners and creatives—from music programmers to mixologists, strategists to sous chefs— ensuring each place feels authentic to its surroundings while standing out on the world stage.
