We work across formats the same way a label works across genres.
Interactive experiences
Installations, browser-native toys, playful formats for brands, festivals, stages, and rooms that remember you.
Commissioned · LiveMotion & moving image
Short films, idents, realtime cinematics. Story-shaped video for artists, labels, brands, and whoever asks politely.
Film · RealtimeDigital worlds
Sites that behave, tools that have a voice, environments that outlive the launch. Worldbuilding as a deliverable.
Web · EnvironmentsConcepts & experiments
Prototypes, research sprints, strange weekends. The lab that feeds the rest. Usually ships before anyone asked for it.
R&D · OpenTransmissions, incoming.
04 · Studio
We make things that move — literally, and also the other way.
Ten Forward is a small independent studio in Zürich. We build games, interactive experiences, and moving-image work for partners with taste: brands, festivals, artists, cultural institutions, and ourselves.
We believe play is a language, atmosphere is structural, and systems can feel warm if you build them that way. We like things short, strange, and considered. We are not a service; we are a label with engineers.
Dreiplay, our sibling studio, handles branded and corporate game work. Ten Forward is the flagship — where originals, films, and worlds live.
