TIME

We led TIME’s digital transformation, preserving its editorial identity, directing an AI overhaul and modernizing the newsroom, content delivery and how advertising value was created. TIME AI was a highlight: an editorially guided AI system that connects current reporting to more than 100 years of archives.

NFL

We reimagined the NFL fan experience to fuel the weekly rhythm of the game, helping fans move seamlessly from anticipation to game day and beyond. Our design system is currently powering every digital touchpoint for the NFL, from app to website, social media, connected TV and more.

JBL

In a world where AI is rapidly deciding what consumers see first — and what they never see at all — we gave JBL first-mover advantage by creating the industry’s first AI-native discovery system built for how search works today.

NBC

We rebuilt and redesigned the NBC Big Board, made famous by Steve Kornacki. Over a year of intensive engineering, design, systems building and product strategy helped set the standard for election reporting.

Microsoft

We created and launched Microsoft’s “Yours to Build” integrated campaign, which accelerated Microsoft’s B2B growth by doing what competitors couldn’t: unifying a world-class developer ecosystem into a single, emotionally resonant story that developers could embrace and rally behind.

Stanley Black and Decker

Code and Theory developed an industrial-scale design and technology system that powers over 30 SBD brands across 55+ markets. The system amplifies each brand‘s own identity while running on a shared technical foundation that is fast, flexible and built to scale.
