Two People Who Worked Well Together And Decided To Never Stop.

We started the way the best things do – as a friendship. Christina and Marilena spent over two decades working side by side in agencies and for international fashion brands, until the decision to go out on their own felt less like a risk and more like the most obvious thing in the world.

Between us, we’ve conceived 360° campaigns, built brand strategies from the ground up, and seen projects through from the first idea to the final image – for brands like BestSecret, Occhio, OPUS, someday and 25Seven, among others. We know what it takes to move a brand forward, and we know what it looks like when something isn‘t quite right yet.

We’re based in Munich, but our work is shaped by everywhere else, the markets we‘ve wandered through, the hotels we‘ve stayed in, the brands we‘ve fallen for along the way. That curiosity is what keeps our work from standing still.

Ato means three in Igbo. The studio, the client, and what we create together. That‘s always been the idea.
