DIGITAL EXPERIENCES, CUSTOM-BUILT

Strategy, content, design and development—all from one team.

We develop custom digital applications that invite people to explore content and actively engage with it. Depending on the project, we create web experiences, digital learning environments, serious games, interactive films, 360° and WebXR experiences, augmented reality applications, and digital installations.

To achieve this, we combine content strategy and storytelling with gamification, film, 3D, animation, and generative AI. We support projects from initial research and concept development through design and media production to programming and publication.

SUSPEKT – Landscape of Crime

A digital investigation into hidden sites of Nazi crimes

SUSPEKT reveals the extensive network of Nazi crime sites surrounding the Buchenwald concentration camp. For the Arolsen Archives, we developed a browser-based learning environment in collaboration with the Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora Memorials Foundation and the Friedenstein Foundation Gotha. 360° environments, historical sources, videos, and interactive research tasks give young people an independent and source-critical approach to history.

OUR SERVICES

The right format for every topic

Not every story calls for the same medium. That is why we do not begin with a predefined technology, but with the content, the target audience, and the intended use. From there, we develop a custom digital experience, combining the formats and technologies that best support each individual project.

Digital Learning Environments

Interactive learning experiences, web-based training courses, and educational platforms that communicate knowledge through exploration, decision-making, and experimentation.

Web Experiences

Custom-built websites and browser-based applications that transform content into interactive experiences.

360° Experiences

Real places, people, and situations become spatial experiences enhanced by navigation, storytelling, and interactive elements.

Virtual Reality and WebXR

Browser-based VR applications and interactive VR films that can be launched directly on compatible VR headsets.

Serious Games and Gamification

Games, tasks, decisions, and reward systems create motivation and enable active learning experiences.

Generative AI

AI-powered dialogues, virtual characters, images, films, and audio content introduce new forms of interaction to digital experiences.

Augmented Reality

Digital content enhances real-world places, objects, and situations via smartphones, tablets, or compatible AR devices.

Digital Installations

Interactive applications for touchscreens, projections, VR stations, and other digital exhibits at exhibitions and events.

Digital experiences for complex subject matter

Our projects cover a wide range of topics, target audiences, and usage scenarios. We immerse ourselves in the subject matter, work with our clients to develop the right form of communication, and collaborate with experts and academic institutions whenever required.

Environment & Nature

Interactive nature experiences, virtual field trips, and digital environmental education make habitats, biodiversity, and scientific relationships engaging and accessible.

Education & Learning

Digital learning environments, web-based training courses, and serious games communicate knowledge through independent exploration, decision-making, and experimentation.

Politics & History

Interactive maps, historical sources, personal stories, and digital learning experiences open up new perspectives on politics, remembrance culture, and social issues.

Culture & Knowledge

Virtual tours, digital exhibitions, and interactive knowledge environments make art, architecture, research, and cultural heritage accessible in new ways.

Brands & Companies

Interactive brand environments, employer branding experiences, and digital corporate stories provide authentic insights into products, workplaces, and organisations.

WHY KUBIKFOTO

Content, design and technology—developed as one

We see ourselves as more than a technical service provider. We engage deeply with each subject, develop the right idea together with our clients, and combine content strategy, storytelling, design, media production, and custom web development.

Real-world experiences as a starting point

One of our particular strengths is combining real places, people, and situations with the possibilities of digital interaction.

In-depth content expertise

We research, structure, and help develop content, contribute our own ideas, and work closely with experts, editorial teams, and academic institutions whenever required.

Custom experiences

Our projects are not based on a fixed template. Narrative structure, navigation, design, and interactions are developed to suit the topic, target audience, and intended use.

Our key areas of expertise include education and learning, the environment and nature, politics and history, culture and knowledge, and brands and companies.

What makes Kubikfoto different from other digital agencies?

One of Kubikfoto’s particular strengths is combining real places, people, and situations with extensive digital interaction. To achieve this, we use technologies and formats including 360° photography and video, interactive film, storytelling, gamification, 3D, animation, and generative AI. Every application is individually developed around the topic, target audience, and intended use.

Do the applications need to be installed?

Usually not. Our applications are browser-based and can be accessed directly via a URL. Depending on the project, they work on desktop computers, smartphones, tablets, touchscreens, and compatible VR headsets. This allows many experiences to be used across different devices without a separate app and updated centrally.

Does Kubikfoto also handle strategy and content?

Yes. We support projects from the initial idea through to the finished application. Depending on the requirements, this includes research, content and narrative development, copywriting, storytelling, UX and interface design, photography, film and 360° production, 3D, animation, audio, and programming.

For projects involving complex subject matter, we work closely with editorial teams, experts, and academic institutions.

How much does it cost to develop a custom digital experience?

The cost depends on the volume of content, the required interactions, media production, target devices, and technical integration. Following an initial consultation, we develop a suitable project structure and provide a transparent quotation. Larger projects can also be divided into carefully planned development stages that build on one another.
