Ambitions 01

Refocus on experience.

Ten years have passed since A&M launched a popup at Topshop Oxford Circus.

In order to win on experience, A&M need to transcend the category.

02 Insight

WHERE DO WE FIND MEANINGFUL CONNECTION IN OUR LIVES?

A meaningful connection is one that fosters a sense of belonging and purpose, and it can help us feel less disconnected and alone.

Want to build deeper connections? Start with yourself first.

Meaningful connection with oneself is nurtured through an attitude of self-kindness that is associated with flourishing and thriving.

SELF

Globally, consumers desire more social connection but are held back by societal, geographical or economic pressures.

Meaningful connection with others improves generates a positive feedback loop of social, emotional and physical wellbeing.

SOCIAL

SELF

We experience universal connection when we are deeply moved by a feeling of awe and connection to something greater than ourselves.

UNIVERSAL

SOCIAL

SELF

Three opportunities to create meaningful connection.

SOCIAL UNIVERSAL

Create an awe-inspiring, multisensory experience that drives universal connection – where success is defned by emotional metrics.

03 Concept

The role of the House of Astrid & Miyu is to…

Create meaningful connections to the self, to others and to something bigger than oneself.

We are all unique, yet we share a common heritage: we are all made of stardust. Our continuous search for connection starts with self-love, drawing us even closer to the relationships and social circles that bring us joy.

Every one of us is part of a constellation made of our chosen family, connected to a community with shared purpose.

House of Astrid and Miyu brings together our community of constellations in a home of awe-inspiring experiences.

ATTENTION

What if we create an evolving, sharable and aweinspiring experiential anchor that connects everyone, everywhere?

CONNECTION

What if we used moments of using tech, taste and touch to create multi sensory and product-centric conversation starters?

ATTACHMENT

What if we use monthly rituals for members to drive reconnection, advocacy and repeat visits?
