Aura Air

Background & Approach

• While it is common knowledge that outdoor air pollution poses a real threat to our health, few know that indoor air is in fact, on average, 5 times more polluted. Aura Air understood this and in response developed an all-in-one indoor air filtration and purification system designed for the end-consumer.

  When they reached out to us, Aura had a beautifully designed product, but lacked a compelling story that clearly articulated the need for people to purchase it. We worked with Aura to craft a compelling narrative and brand identity. This began with the foundations. We defined their brand positioning as a combination of Nest, Dyson, and Modern Sculpture. Next, after diving into their company culture, we concluded their foundational guiding value to be “empathy for the people [they are] trying to design for,” a central tenant in design thinking articulated by IDEO founder David Kelley. From these two anchors, we crafted Aura’s brand narrative.

  Overall, Aura needed to be relatable and easy to understand. We aimed to communicate sophistication wrapped in approachability and ease-of-use. Consumers needed to feel that Aura would solve a problem that they didn’t know they had, simply.

The Aura Air Brand Story

• At Aura Air, we believe the act of breathing should be as nature intended. Clean, pure and simple. A constant since birth, breathing sets our life’s rhythm. Inhale. Exhale. Fresh clean air clears our mind and rejuvenates our body without us committing a second thought.

  Unfortunately, air quality today requires our attention. While many of us worry about the air outside, indoor air is in fact five times more polluted. With most of us spending 90% of our time inside, every breath we take is affecting our overall health more than we may realize.

  With a quest to reclaim our natural right to clean air, Aura Air developed the world’s smartest air purification system, an all-in-one solution that cleanses and disinfects your indoor air while vigilantly monitoring its quality in real-time. Cutting-edge in design, Aura is remarkably simple to install and effortless to operate. Just hang it up and plug it in. We do the rest.

  Because breathing shouldn’t require a second thought.
