Adjacent Dpt. is a creative consultancy and partner agency. We work with fashion and lifestyle brands on identity, strategy, and concept — and we bring exactly the right people to every project.
Close enough to get it.
Far enough to see it.
Adjacent Dpt. was founded by Kristoffer Alexander Holtermann — creative director, brand builder, and founder of krisalexander™. Eight years across fashion, music, advertising, and technology on both sides of the Atlantic. A founder's instinct. A director's eye.
We move like a studio, not a consultancy. When a project calls for it, we pull from a trusted network of photographers, directors, producers, and strategists across Copenhagen, Paris, and London. The right people. Every time.
From brand foundations to the finished product. Everything a fashion or lifestyle brand needs to show up right.
The frameworks that make a brand legible — to itself and to the world. Architecture, positioning, narrative, and the visual system that holds it all together.
Art direction and creative storytelling for brands. We develop the vision, direct the shoot, and supervise every frame — wherever that needs to happen.
Creation of visual content — casting, styling, direction, and post-production. Photography, film, editorial. Built around what the brand actually needs.
From concept and design development to material sourcing, sampling, and manufacturing coordination. We take a product from sketch to finished object through our trusted supplier network.
End-to-end fashion show production. We conceptualize the experience, cast the talent, handle styling, and curate sound and visuals — from the first mood board to the final bow.
Brand moments beyond the runway — pop-up stores, launch events, influencer and celebrity seeding, and fashion week activations. We build the environment and fill the room.
Strategic support for brands at any stage. Brand development, creative strategy, PR direction, and ongoing advisory — the thinking that makes everything else land.
Three ways to engage. Add one to your selection and we'll build the scope around it.
A monthly creative retainer — on your shoots, in your design meetings, at your factories. Sourcing runs, production decisions, campaign calls. Your creative director on call without the overhead.
A defined engagement with a clear scope and a clear end. Brand strategy, campaign concept, identity direction — or a combination. Scales with complexity. Clear in, clear out.
The full build. Strategy, creative direction, production, and campaign over three months. The scope that calls for this level of commitment gets this level of dedication.
From the first sketch to the finished garment. We oversee the entire process — design consultation, material sourcing, sampling, and production — through our trusted network of partners in northern Portugal.
Our production partners are based in the textile heartland of northern Portugal — Porto, Barcelos, and Braga — where some of Europe's finest denim and jersey manufacturers operate. We've built relationships here over years. We know the people, the mills, and the machines.
We offer full product consultation and production oversight: concept development, design direction, fabric selection, sample management, quality control, and final delivery. You bring the vision. We bring it to life.
Select the services that match what you're working on. We'll put together a proposal that fits.
