ABOUT CAPSULE
Capsule has refused to adopt a descriptor since 1999. We’ve worked extensively with companies in the outdoor industry as well as those whose employees seldom venture into the light of day. We’ve strategized for billion dollar industries and nonprofits. Conducted research for brands both big and small. We’ve given new faces to startups and face-lifts to businesses over a century old. We’ve named everything from apples to office chairs. Rebranded schools and orchestras. Crafted experiences for grocery stores and Super Bowls. Our refusal to limit our work to one specific industry, combined with the satisfaction we find from solving problems that others avoid, has earned us a long list of partners over the last 21 years. So if you asked us to describe Capsule in a word, we guess our word would be “We can’t.”
Clients we’ve grown with include Patagonia, Kwik Trip, Mattel, Minnesota Orchestra, Medtronic, Cargill, Gerber, Hydro Flask, Red Wing Shoes, The Honest Company, Yakima, Herman Miller, Caribou Coffee, Pepsi and Smartwool.
Capsule’s passion for designing authentic, meaningful moments for brands and our clients extends to the way we design our employee experience. Below are just a few perks of working at Capsule.
