Symbiome - The Ceremony Matcha Mask
Symbiome leads with stem cell media. The phrase sounds like a lab consumable, not a $200 ritual. The work had to make the biotechnology feel inherited rather than invented.
The direction came from one word: culture. Cell culture, fermentation culture, ancestral culture. A single idea holding the laboratory and the origin story at the same time.
I built the frame on evidence instead of atmosphere. Flat clinical daylight, seamless ground, the mask left wet and mid-ritual, skin untouched down to the pore. The palette holds to three notes: skin, natural elements, and the green of the product itself.
Concept, styling, and grade are directed in-house. AI extends execution, never the idea. The result is editorial-caliber campaign imagery delivered without a studio, a crew, or a entire shoot day.
