Kontrapunkt is Scandinavia’s leading strategic design and brand agency.
We identify our clients' potential and make it tangible and profitable through design and communication. 

For almost 30 years our solutions have had an impact on the world and have moved organizations and people forward. 

Our brand designs can be seen on the high street, on supermarket shelves, in your office, home, computer, TV, refrigerator, and even in your wallet. 

Today we are over 50 professionals working out of our offices in Copenhagen and Japan.

We believe that in order to create an unforgettable brand you need to have a sense of musicality. Only then can you hear, play and create new harmonies that are in tune with the world.

Danish and Chinese collaboration

For two weeks Kontrapunkt has had the pleasure of housing a team from the design agency Kan & Lau in Hong Kong.
Kontrapunkt and Kan & Lau join forces on the project of PMQ, which are two buildings in Hong Kong facing a future as South East Asia’s new and largest creative design hub. The PMQ buildings were previously used to house married policemen, which explains the name “PMQ” (Police Married Quarters). The ambition is for PMQ to become an incubator where young and upcoming talents within design, architecture, fashion, art etc. can develop their creativity.
Together with Kan & Lau, Kontrapunkt is behind a new visual identity creating the right surroundings and atmosphere for the PMQ.
