DNA - Auckland

Things change in business faster than ever now. Consumers are more sophisticated, every market is more competitive, category boundaries shift, cost of entry is lower, and no sector is immune to the challenges brought by innovative and lateral thinkers.

We work with businesses and brands to tackle how they best adapt to the changing needs of markets and consumers in this environment. We help them 'up their game' and in some cases we help them 'break the game wide open' in their sector.

Our core strengths are business, brand, staff engagement and the utilisation of online channels. Our primary tools are research, strategy and design.

Operating out of Auckland and Wellington we have a team over 50, including business, brand and online strategists, research specialists and some of New Zealand's leading brand designers, web designers and production/print experts. We work with organisations of all sizes across the economy, from large private companies and public sector agencies to smaller commercial entities.

Core discipline:
Brand & design strategy

Other disciplines:
Communication & graphic design
Design management
Packaging design
Point-of-sale design
Product design & development
User experience design
Web / interactive design
