This was a nice one…
Early Spring was named a 2026 Next Gen Awards honoree by @theprnet — their annual recognition of agencies doing meaningful work in communications. The judging panel included folks from Samsung, The Lede Company, Havas, and Simon & Schuster, among others.
They described us as a studio that starts with immersion, not deliverables. We don’t show up with a deck and a format. We listen and learn how a team actually works, synthesize and build from there.
Six years in, we’re a small shop and still very much in it.
Grateful to the @theprnet team for a great evening, and to everyone who’s trusted us with their projects along the way. #experientialdesign #PRNetNextGen #brandexperience #experientialmarketing
From the Early Spring archives. A project we poured time and dedication into that, in the end, larger forces kept from coming to life. But the work matters, whether it makes it to the venue or is destined for a deck.

The flock has officially taken off, but we didn’t leave quietly. For a moment, a stretch of NYC turned unapologetically pink, loud, and completely unexpected. And we loved every second of it. 🦩
Thanks to everyone who showed up, snapped a pic, or just stood there wondering “what is going on?” We’re beyond thrilled that our pink paradise brought so many smiles to your faces. 🫶
Huge thank you to our flamingo wranglers who helped bring this wild idea to life! Now for the most important question: where should the flock migrate next? 👀

When Montauk Climate approached Early Spring to produce a networking event during #climateweeknyc—amidst 600+ events happening across the city—we faced a key challenge: how and why this one would matter.
With a landscape full of pitches, presentations, fireside chats, and conventions, we chose to create an immersive visual experience, bringing the subject of climate action to life through the lens of art.
We partnered with Toronto-based artist @dianalynnvdm to explore the intersection of digital art and land conservation, inspired by her work revitalizing her family’s farmland.
Integrating documentation from her farming diary, Diana created Pixel As A Seed, an immersive digital landscapes featuring elements like maize, sorghum sudangrass, clover, and goldenrod—each symbolizing key ecological insights.
By pixelizing the ecosystems Diana engages with, we invited guests to reflect on what is gained and lost in translation, sparking new ways of thinking, interacting, and creating.
Surrounded by stunning digital projections from @dianalynnvdm , inspired by her family farm, Montauk Climate brought together the top minds in climate tech at @shiftmidtown to celebrate #climateweeknyc. A powerful night with the builders and backers shaping the future of sustainability. #experiential
