BrandSculpture
Once upon a time: Family Sculpting
Understanding emotional
relationships is essential
in family constellations.
We discovered: brands &
their users act as a family.
Relationships and
emotions play the most
important role.
With the new technique:
distances become visible
and tell the story about
brands & their users.

the brand. I think they represent good quality.”

use their products.”

Smash
Less appealing brands (or those,
which are financially not
achievable) get a more distant
position in the sculpture.
“See it as cheap and unnecessary - prefer to make
proper mash with real potato.”
“It is a product I would never purchase.”
“I don't even know why this brand exists.”
“I hate the taste of smash.”
