"Our Vision: To spark transformation for lasting impact and be recognized as an inspirational force in the experience economy."

At Storyland Studios, we’re driven by a commitment to constant improvement, fueled by a spirit of creativity and innovation. We craft unforgettable, immersive experiences that ‘lift the spirit’ and are passionate about creating a lasting impact – supporting our communities, championing sustainable design, and cultivating an inspiring work culture for our people.

The mission of our business is to help spark transformation. We use our proprietary Story Circles process to develop a unique, creative vision that helps to enhance the project’s impact, and sparks transformation through a compelling story.

Cause-Based Design

Storyland Studios proudly incorporates our brand, PlainJoe, dedicated to partnering with mission-driven organizations, from nonprofits to educational institutions and churches. PlainJoe empowers these organizations to share their vision, tell their stories, and maximise their impact. Each project allows us to create spaces that embody the heart and mission of the organization, inspiring communities to come together in support of a greater cause.

Sustainable Design

Our commitment to sustainable design isn’t just a goal—it’s embedded in everything we do. Our team is comprised of experts with the knowledge and experience to develop innovative, sustainable designs, holding qualifications such as LEED AP, and NCARB etc. Our team works to the latest environmental codes and regulations, and many of our projects are in a LEED qualifying standard, regardless of whether the client seeks to achieve LEED certification. We consider design through a sustainability lens; we consistently leverage new ideas and innovations, working closely with the client, our suppliers, and our peers.

Investing in the Next Generation

We believe in empowering the next generation of creative professionals. Through our internships, mentorship programs, and initiatives like the Design Challenge, we welcome young talent to our industry, helping them build skills and gain experience while infusing our team with fresh perspectives. These programs provide hands-on experience across a wide array of disciplines, allowing interns to learn from industry legends and cultivate a passion for creating immersive, impactful spaces. We are proud that many of our interns go on to secure full-time roles within the company, proving that investing in the future of our industry is not just beneficial but essential. We see it as a partnership, where the enthusiasm and ideas of our younger team members spark new directions for our work, keeping us on the cutting edge.

Our Design Challenge

Commitment to Collaboration

We bring together talented experts from across industries and across the globe, engaging both internal teams and external partners to create spaces that exceed expectations. Our collaborative philosophy extends to our sustainability goals, where we actively partner with specialists to ensure our designs are forward-thinking, responsible, and impactful. Through collaboration, we continue to evolve our methods and exceed standards. We see each project as an opportunity to combine ideas and share knowledge, creating lasting value and fostering innovation.
