Ideas in the wild

There’s ample scientific evidence that being outdoors helps us think more creatively. From 8th-century Japanese poets to ancient Greeks and English Romantics, nature has long been seen as a source of divine inspiration.

Science and history aside it’s obvious that stepping out of the workplace is the best way to tackle the challenges created in the workplace. Sticking Post-it notes on a wall has its merits, but walking and talking will always take you further.

That’s why we created Punk Ideation: to take a fresh look at what it means to co-create great ideas.

And to get out more.

Why you might need Punk Ideation

Great brands are driven by fresh ideas so if you want to uncover new ways to reach more people, launch a new product or service, or just make more impact, then this is for you. The more measured pace of a walking session also makes it a great tool for problem solving.

How it works

We’ll first agree a route that suits your diary and energy levels. Then we’ll ask a few key questions ahead of the day to give us some background and insight.

On the day we’ll walk, talk, facilitate, and let science and nature play their part. If there’s time, it’s helpful to wrap up with a brew.

The benefits to you

In a word, ideas. You’ll enjoy access to highly experienced creative thinkers who will help you, your team, and your business see your challenges in a new light. You’ll also benefit from being outdoors while getting your steps in. Make no mistake - this is work. Just not desk work.

Afterwards, you’ll get a written summary of the ideas unearthed, along with some suggested next actions. There’s no obligation to use Samara to execute any ideas. We’re happy to work with in-house or existing creative teams.

The cost

Prices start from £495 but every session is unique so we quote on an individual basis.

We aim for a rough ratio of one Samaran to two of your team. You can bring up to eight colleagues, though in our experience, smaller groups tend to be more productive.

Co-creation on the move

We would happily sit in the studio and generate a pad full of ideas for you, and we might hit the mark with some of those. But working directly with you and your team has distinct advantages and efficiencies. Get in touch to find out more about the power of co-creation.
