A DREAME HOLIDAY

Making Home Tech Feel Like Home

Dreame, a home technology brand, needed to stand out in the highly competitive holiday gift guide season. With multiple tech brands vying for media attention and consumer dollars during this crucial retail period, traditional product demonstrations and press events risked getting lost in the seasonal noise.

01 THE ASK

Create an engaging press and influencer event that would position Dreame’s products as must-have holiday items and secure placement in holiday gift guides. The event needed to showcase the products’ functionality while creating memorable content opportunities for attendees to share.

02 THE INSIGHT

Rather than presenting technology in isolation, we recognized that home devices exist within the context of people’s lives and aspirations. The holiday season offers a unique opportunity to tap into both the practical and emotional aspects of home life. By showcasing products within a fully realized living space, we could help media and influencers envision how their audiences would actually use and experience these items.

03 THE SOLUTION

Early Spring transformed the penthouse suite at ModernHaus hotel into an aspirational New York City apartment decorated for the holidays. The immersive environment allowed guests to experience Dreame products in natural use settings rather than sterile demonstration spaces. The space featured multiple engagement points: hands-on product testing stations, professional blow-out services using Dreame hair dryers, and an interactive ornament-making workshop that added a festive, shareable moment to the experience. This approach merged product demonstration with lifestyle aspiration, allowing press and influencers to gather both technical information and compelling content while experiencing the products as they would in their own homes during the holiday season.

01 THE ASK

Having secured a sponsorship opportunity for the Mushrooms: The Art, Design and Future of Fungi exhibit at London’s Somerset House, Origins tasked Early Spring with concepting a 3-day trip through the British capital for 30 key global retail partners and beauty influencers.

Each activity had to tactfully tie in a product benefit and pair back to who Origins is as a brand: Powered by Nature, Proven by Science; their Nature to Do Good; the focus on Inner Harmony & Outer Beauty, and finally, the global Origins story of endless discovery.

02 THE INSIGHT

The last two years have seen over 100 new skincare brands debuting in department and specialty stores. Given this sea of choice, 91% consumers admit they would switch brands to one that felt more mission-driven. What’s more, 80% say that they want to know more about how the products they use are being made. A watershed moment for Origins, they sought to crystallize their position & ethos as a brand dedicated to a more holistic & mindful approach to skincare.

03 THE SOLUTION

Inspired by their Origins’ founding motto philosophy, their growing sustainability initiatives & of course, their bestselling products, Early Spring designed & produced a 3-day trip that fascinated guests, radiating the brand, its story & products for months to come.

04 THE RESULT

Designed as a triptych, each day focused on an essential aspect of the Origins story while highlighting the brand’s hero product line. Each of the trip’s activities had a strategic purpose that dialed back to one of the brand’s pillars – their foundations in science, their philanthropic initiatives & their focus on providing consumers with a holistic experience.

Every activity had a different set design, integrating the brand’s products & ingredients in an arresting way. To highlight their founding motto, Powered by Nature, Proven by Science, we transported guests in a branded double-decker bus to Kew Gardens, the largest botanical & mycological collection in the world. Origins’ president, Julie van Ongevalle, shed light on their sustainability initiatives over a farm-to-table lunch at Petersham Nurseries. Paying tribute to the brand’s collaboration with Somerset House, guests descended upon an Origins’ green lit courtyard & dined at Spring, a restaurant tucked into the iconic landmark. We then paired the brand’s dedication to creating holistic, sensorial experiences with their driving concepts of achieving inner harmony & outer beauty to transform a trendy lunchtime spot, Wild by Tart, into a day-time spa, pampering guests with sound baths & facials. Finally, we threw a farewell party at the Conduit Club, a hub for social entrepreneurs.

Working with Estee Lauder, we ushered in a new era of social media strategy for the brand. Capturing the activities in real-time, we leveraged a host of innovative mixed-media Instagram formats, broadcasting them in near real-time. Our work paid off: Origins Taiwan sold out of brand’s hero product & e-commerce sales increased by more than 100%.
