A closer look
at STORIES.
STORIES is a creative communications agency based in Istanbul, working globally.
With extensive experience in lifestyle, food & beverage and hospitality, our work combines brand communication, strategy and creative direction.
Through social media, branding, production and curated experiences, we help brands build a distinctive presence, both on screen and in real life.
What makes
a brand itself?
That is where our work begins. We look at the people behind a brand, the experience it offers and the place it wants to occupy in people’s lives.
From there, we shape what it says, how it looks and where its story unfolds. Strategy gives the work direction. Creative decisions make that direction visible.
A photograph, a caption, a menu or a gathering can each express something different. We make sure they still belong to the same brand.

Working globally
Built around
your brand.
Some briefs begin with a brand taking shape. Others call for a campaign, a new content direction or an experience. We bring together the disciplines the work needs.
Brand building & strategy
We define what a brand stands for, who it speaks to and how it shows up. Positioning, brand narrative and communication planning give the creative work a clear direction.
Creative direction
We establish the visual and editorial direction of a brand or campaign, connecting the central idea to the imagery, language and details that express it.
Social media & content
We shape a brand’s day-to-day presence through content planning, writing, design and social media management. Each piece has a role within the wider story.
Digital marketing
We plan digital campaigns around a clear objective, bringing the message, creative and audience together and using performance insights to inform what comes next.
Photo & video production
We develop shoot concepts and art direction, then bring them into photography and film for campaigns, social channels and brand communication.
Visual communication
We translate a brand’s character into a recognisable visual language, from identity and graphic design to the materials people encounter online and in person.
Experience concept design
We develop concepts for launches, gatherings and brand experiences, considering the setting, atmosphere and details through which people encounter the brand.
Get close.
We ask questions, listen and look closely at your business, audience and ambitions before defining the brief.
Set the direction.
We turn that understanding into a focused approach, with a clear idea, priorities and a shared creative direction.
Make it tangible.
We carry the direction into content, design and experiences, staying involved in the details as the work takes shape.
