Brand building for a new cultural lighthouse project in Munich.
“Feeling” instead of consuming art and culture

Positioning: “Feeling” instead of consuming art and culture

    Challenges:

  • Communication in a wide variety of formats and art forms
  • Communication of over 25 events and exhibitions per year
  • Softening the constitutional barriers of the target groups

  • Extremely low budget

Values: The whiteBOX is barrier-free and open to all societies, sustainability and art are its DNA. Art is lived here, every day.

USP: So far there has been no comparable cultural project in Munich. The whiteBOX is already unique in its structure in Munich. That’s why it is fast, agile, flexible and able to pick up short-term trends, but at the same time still professional and follows a long-term strategy.

Right from the start, the communication strategy of Agentur Richter was to be present quickly and forcefully.
