We believe a world without stories is a world without colour.

 
 

Stories are the most powerful form of communication. As much about empathy as they are about conveying a message, they are also the most powerful way to change minds and win hearts.

ALHAUS is an agency with a difference–and lots of it.

 
 

Firstly, we’re all specialists in our core disciplines. We’re agile too, so we can be as small or as big as your project demands. We're also passionate about sustainability — we're working hard to lower our emissions through our Tech Zero pledge.

Shared principles that shape why and how we work.

Featured
Balance

Words are a big part of what we do, but so are images, experiences and ideas. The most magnetic brands are those that balance every element perfectly.

Positivity

We absolutely love what we do–everything from first meetings where anything is possible, to the inevitable hard work and devilish detail.

Leadership

When a client puts their faith in us, we work tirelessly to prove we’re worthy of that trust; and empower everyone to take ownership of their role.

Attainment

We’re an experienced team determined to do our best for every client. We’re also life-learners and explorers, endlessly curious about the world around us.

Work with us and you’ll tap into a unique blend of creativity, story, design and strategy.

A rigorous but flexible approach.

 

We build a team around you and your most important audiences. The result is a collaborative, productive and creative client relationship.

ALHAUS story

A lot of people set out to start a business, but not ALHAUS founder, Alison O’Byrne. Like so many happy accidents, necessity was the mother of invention. Alison simply needed to make good on her rent.

Back in 2003, her early ambitions to become a fiction editor were eclipsed by opportunities in technical editing. But to win contracts Alison needed to register a company. The day she received the certificate kindled a spark in her that would light a fire.

As Alison’s reputation grew so too did demand for her talent and skills. Soon she was managing multiple contracts and building a trusted team of professionals that could define, maintain and amplify clients’ stories and branded content.

Today, ALHAUS thrives in an exciting world of ideas, creativity and storytelling. What began as one opportunity has steadily grown into a global family of ALHAUS creatives and wonderful clients.

Now some twenty years later, ALHAUS continues to evolve into a flexible and creative organisation worthy of all the amazing brands the team have attracted past, present and future. If you’d like to know more, drop us an email: info@alhaus.com

 Who is a typical ALHAUS client?

 

Our clients share a readiness to spread the word. They care passionately about their brand community but often get stuck when it comes to creating compelling content. And that’s where we come in: through beautiful visuals, smart content, powerful stories and efficient project management. We optimise website content, make digital and print assets work harder and capture that elusive essence across all channels.
