A booking and wayfinding system for eleven coastal observatories, built for people who arrive cold, tired and holding a phone with one bar of signal. Everything resolves to a single column: where you are, what is open, how long the walk is. The identity borrows its logic from tide tables — a fixed grid, numbers that change twice a day, nothing decorative that has to be maintained by someone else later.

Kikis is a small studio working across photography, motion and identity. We take on a handful of projects a year so that each one gets the same attention: research, art direction, production, and the long unglamorous stretch where a thing is made to actually work.
