Challenges
“Our team was spending more time coordinating workflows, following up on tasks, and compiling reports than focusing on strategy and creative execution.”
Our Approach

Turning a vast cultural archive into an explorable world

We designed and built RISAAL as an interactive 3D globe where every glowing region opens a cinematic chapter. Visitors spin the Earth, click into a territory, and move through an editorial journey of trade routes, textiles, and poetry.
