Bompas & Parr

Bompas & Parr is a creative studio made up of artists, architects, chefs, designers, marketeers, strategists and technologists.

Through consultancy, delivering Location Based Experiences (LBEs) and writing publications, the studio challenges the world around us with radical creativity and a thirst for provoking innovation. The studio works with cultural institutions, attractions, governments, developers and brands to deliver this work.

Founded in 2007, the company has grown from just Sam Bompas and Harry Parr into a team of 30 skilled and ambitious people eager to generate a wide range of projects.

Genre-defining projects include Alcoholic Architecture, an inhabitable cloud of gin and tonic; the world’s first Multi-Sensory Fireworks display for London New Year’s Eve 2013; and the Taste Experience for the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin. Bompas & Parr also founded the British Museum of Food, the world’s first cultural institution exclusively dedicated to food and drink, and has published 12 books that explore humankind’s relationship with food.

Bompas & Parr works with brands such as Coca-Cola, Johnnie Walker, Mercedes, and LVMH as well as cultural institutions such as The Barbican, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge. The studio is based in south London but in the past year has realised projects on practically every continent.
