We turned bulthaup Grandvalira into a brand experience beyond the mountain

Where it started

Strategy, film and digital campaigns to amplify a dining experience where design, cooking and landscape meet.

bulthaup Grandvalira is a dining experience in the Grau Roig sector. Inside a transparent space surrounded by snow, a bulthaup kitchen is part of the service, letting you experience the product in use rather than just look at it.

The challenge

The challenge was to take that experience into digital and widen its reach without losing the exclusive, careful and distinctive character of the brand.

  • A seasonal activation that only existed for whoever happened to pass through Grau Roig.
  • A product you understand by seeing it work, hard to convey in an advert.
  • The risk of gaining reach at the cost of the brand's exclusive tone.

The diagnosis

What made the experience unique — the design, the kitchen in service and the setting — was exactly what never left the mountain. The message wasn't missing: what was missing was film able to carry it and distribution to take it further.

  • The kitchen in use during a real service is the argument, not the set dressing.
  • The Grandvalira setting is part of the product, not an interchangeable backdrop.
  • Without in-house production, content depended on whatever each visitor captured.

The strategy

Build a visual and digital strategy around three elements: bulthaup's design, the food and the Grandvalira setting.

  • The kitchen at the centre of the story: a design piece used during a real service.
  • In-house photography and film rather than relying on supplied material.
  • Paid media to widen reach without lowering the standard of what is shown.

    What we learned

    A physical activation built around design isn't told, it's shown working. In-house film production is what let reach grow without lowering the standard of what was being shown.

    What this case proves

    1. 01

      A seasonal activation can live all year in digital.

      What happened over five months in Grau Roig went on existing as a story far beyond the square metre where it took place.

    2. 02

      A product in use convinces more than a product on display.

      The kitchen filmed during a real service explains in seconds what a catalogue can't explain in a page.

    3. 03

      You can gain reach without lowering the standard.

      The growth came from in-house production and paid distribution, not from softening the brand's tone to please more people.
