trends you can feel

We turn trend intelligence into live formats for your team, your clients and your community: workshops that lead to decisions, activations people remember, sensory experiences and talks that change how a room thinks.

Why the senses

identity passes through the senses

The new frontier of marketing and experience is not AI. It is sensoriality.

the AI paradox

AI made everything look the same: generated images, generated copy, generated brands. When everything is artificial, the physical experience becomes the difference.

the proof

73%

of consumers say experience is a key factor in their purchase decisions.

PwC, Experience is everything

the answer

Scent, sound, touch and taste reach memory in ways a screen cannot. What people feel is what they remember, and what they remember is what they choose. Sensoriality is the new scarcity.

Formats

four ways to bring a
trend to life

Every format starts from the same research behind our reports, and is then built around your objective: a launch, an event, a team that needs to decide, a room of stakeholders you need to move. What follows are the four shapes this usually takes. The shape itself is always cut to the brief.

The course · Bologna · 2 to 5 November 2026

sensory identity immersion

AI made every brand look the same. What it cannot copy is what a brand smells like, sounds like and feels in the hand. Sensory Identity Immersion is the working method 341 uses in its own projects, taught over four evenings: how to read a brand through the senses, and how to build the scent, sound, texture, taste and rituals that make it recognisable with the screen off.

For brand and marketing managers, designers, retail and hospitality leads, product developers and founders. No technical background needed. You bring a brand, real or invented, and work on it from the first session to the last.

  • Audit any brand across the five senses and name what is missing.
  • Write an olfactory, sonic and tactile brief a supplier can actually execute.
  • Turn a cultural trend into a sensory decision instead of a mood board.
  • Defend the work to a board with the commercial argument attached.

Four evenings · Twelve hours · In English · 20 seats · Sensory experiences for all five senses · Certificate of completion

  1. olfactory identity

    Fragrance families and raw materials, olfactory memory and emotion, ambient scenting, from brief to signature scent.

    Outcome. Draft the olfactory brief of a brand.

  2. sonic identity

    Sound as brand language: sound logos, brand playlists, soundscapes and the psychology of music in retail spaces.

    Outcome. Build a sonic moodboard for a brand.

  3. tactile identity

    Textures, packaging and materials as languages of quality and positioning. The haptics of premium.

    Outcome. Curate a material library for a brand universe.

  4. taste and ritual

    Taste as connection: tastings, welcome rituals and hospitality design. Rituals that turn customers into members.

    Outcome. Design a welcome ritual for a brand.

  5. sensory integration

    How the senses work together, and sensory identity guidelines that keep every touchpoint coherent.

    Outcome. Present a first sensory identity concept.

Every module combines theory, real brand cases and a hands-on sensory lab. For your team? The course also runs as a twelve-hour in-person intensive for teams, in groups of 10 to 15. Ask about the intensive →
