Wallpaper* x Pullman

When Wallpaper magazine, Somesuch and Pullman approached us with director Isaac Lock's treatment for a piece of bespoke content, we were excited and felt right in our comfort zone. "High Rise" is an evocative poetry of the city, a wandering of a traveling muse acted by Lujza Richter (watch out for her as Princess Mona Braganza in the soon to be released Paul Thomas Anderson directed Phantom Thread).

We love working with scripts and make complete video and film production projects based on storyboards. However, sometimes, with a dreamier type of works, the creative process is more organic and a lot may be revealed during the intensive recce our team provides.

The city is a visual organism, a living, changing organism weaving the threads of thousands of stories. The city is liquid. And so the story was born: a woman surrounded by brutal architecture, the Christo like "wrapped" buildings, an intriguing encounter with Koi fish. This is what a global nomad may see in Hong Kong, while staying at the Park Lane, a Pullman hotel.
