Stories shaped
for you

Interactive spheres, distinctive LED displays and content that brings people together. Since 2004, we’ve helped brands, museums and institutions connect the story, technology and delivery—from permanent installations to live events.

Edinburgh · Since 2004

Born from a challenge to the flat rectangle

Pufferfish began in Edinburgh with a belief that information could become more intuitive, social and memorable when the display took a different form.

That curiosity now brings together immersive content, interactive technology, distinctive LED canvases and the people who make every experience work in the real world.

The next generation · PufferTouch 4

Refined for brighter, quieter and more dependable experiences

PufferTouch 4 evolves our interactive spherical platform with a lighter, quieter and more modular system designed around image performance, operational efficiency and easier maintenance.

Developed in ongoing collaboration with Barco, it brings projection technology, Pufferfish engineering and the PufferOS ecosystem together as one practical platform.

Choose the right canvas

Start with the audience and the environment

PufferTouch and PufferLED answer different briefs. We help define the form around how people will encounter the experience, the space it must inhabit and how it needs to operate.
