Umbrellium

General information

We are a team of architects, designers, commercial experts, producers and creative technologists with years of proven experience in designing and deploying award-winning participatory platforms like Pachube.com (acquired by LogMeIn Inc in 2011, at that time the world’s largest Internet of Things open data infrastructure and community) and mass-participation urban spectacles like The Burble (which launched the Singapore Biennale in 2006, won London’s Design Museum Design of the Year Award in 2008, and opened the Dubai World Cup in 2009).

Our focus is on constructing delight, fostering real engagement and delivering at scale. With a deeper intuitive and practical understanding of what makes crowds and urban environments valuable, dynamic and delightful, our goal is to enable citizens to join together in making sense of, contributing to, and creating their cities.

We design, engineer and distribute everything from hardware products to software systems and the infrastructures that unite the two. We do this by creating partnerships with cities, organisations and companies that share a vision for empowering citizens to build a future for their networked urban environments.
