MACHINE 32 HAS AWOKEN! Want Studios have created the brand and launch strategy for IDRA… Manchester’s new factory dance floor, which opened its doors for a sell-out show at the end of January 2026.

Want Studios have worked with the crew at everyones soon-to-be-favourite neighbourhood rotisserie BUTTER BIRD to help them completely smash their launch. We’ve devised names, drawn chickens, created the brand, designed the interior, worked on socials and comms, and helped to launch the gaff! THE BIRD’S THE WORD.

We ended a whirlwind end to 2025 with an absolute blow out at Tangerine. We’ve loved every second of working with them to create one of Manchester’s hottest venues. The future is Tangerine.

We took out a brand new CUPRA Tavascan for a promo video shoot round Manchester. Truly electric.

Want Studios does burgers! We’ve developed and launched our own burger brand. Own-recipe and super juicy. Check ’em out, serving up in Tangerine. All golden.

TANGERINE turned Manchester and Salford orange with a truly epic halloween launch weekender! Want Studios created everything from the logo and brand, to launch activation, brand story, content, programming and pretty much everything in between.

We designed and developed a fresh look for Reserve Wines in Didsbury. A beautiful neighbourhood wine bar & bottle shop, complete with hand-painted signage by master signwriter Damian Whyatt.

We’ve been spinning some fresh new things with the wonderful team down at the beautiful Side Street. Our new cocktail menu has just dropped, inspired by classic disco, funk and soul vinyl. Get in the groove.

Our very own cafe… COUNTER CULTURE by Want Studios, now open! Operating from the amazing CUPRA City Garage, serving Super Smoothies and all other sorts of goodness!

Baby J made our first event for CUPRA City Garage Mcr one to remember! Pure energy and vibes all night for our biggest launch of 2025. Start as you mean to go on…

We worked closely with the team at ORB Drinks to develop the brand and bring their vision to life. Always so nice to see the finished product.

Up To Somethin’… Under Somethin’. SK1 Beer Hall + Soundsystem. Underbank are gearing for their launch at the end of May. Brand, typography, posters, curated line ups, entertainment, cocktails, ops, launch weekends, cocktails, art. All systems go!

Summer 2025. WANT X CUPRA. Barcelona comes to Manchester. This one is different gravy.

Suns out, guns out! The guys at Con Club have been concocting some seriously good cocktails for summer 25, and we designed their lovely new menu, loosely inspired by vintage Capri! All manner of sunshiney drinks to try, and some of the finest spritz around.

We had an absolute blast filming around Manchester with the La Discothèque flamingos to celebrate 30 Years of Dancing at AO Arena. Sunshine. Choreographed dancers. Mayhem on the Metrolink. Market Street parade. Mobile La Disco orchestra. A-O, let’s go!
