We are hardhat

An independent creative agency helping brands capitalise on the how, when, where, what and why of human behaviour.
Founded at the dawn of 'digital' in 2005, we get what makes people tick, click, swipe, buy and believe.
As times, trends and technologies have changed, so have we, growing to become one of Australia's most innovative full-service agencies.

Work

Created On
curiosity

From stories to experiences, ads to interfaces, we believe that today's best work champions 'brand' and 'user' in equal measure. We think wide so that big ideas become whole ideas; because while a 30 second ad might get people believing in a brand, a three second wait on its website can get them leaving.

BUILT ON BEHAVIOUR

Why do we do that thing we do? We’ve bunched our best behavioural insights into a mini-book, to understanding what really makes consumers tick.
