Experiences
Experiences are where Speedstyle Labs does its work in public.
We travel to events, cities, races, shows, fairs, and unfamiliar environments to understand how people, places, design, culture, and systems come together.
Some experiences are complete. Some are underway. Some are still ahead. This is the working archive.
The posters are the starting point. Stories, field notes, photographs, visual observations, products, and future podcast episodes will gather around each experience over time.

2026 fieldwork
Shanghai 2026
Design, culture, industry, and the many ways a city asks people to move through it.
Shanghai is a study in contrast, movement, scale, and attention. This experience brings together trade shows, art, design, fashion, manufacturing, food, architecture, and the everyday choreography of a city that is always in motion.

2026 fieldwork
Hong Kong 2026
Watch, fashion, events, and the experience of being invited into a global city.
Hong Kong 2026 follows the spaces where brands, visitors, products, and culture meet. The work looks beyond what is being displayed to understand how people arrive, move, browse, connect, pause, and decide what deserves their attention.

2026 fieldwork
Sydney Marathon 2026
One city, one race, and the human journey from preparation to finish.
Sydney Marathon 2026 follows the experience of a major road race from the perspective of the people moving through it. The race is only one part of the story. Preparation, travel, logistics, spectators, recovery, the city, and the emotional movement toward the finish all belong here.

2026 fieldwork
Montreal F1 2026
Speed, summer, city, and the crowd around one of racing’s most alive weekends.
Montreal F1 is an experience of racing, weather, city life, hospitality, noise, movement, and the people who gather around speed. Speedstyle Labs looks at the event itself and everything around it: arrival, access, atmosphere, spectacle, recovery, and the relationship between the race and the city hosting it.

2026 fieldwork
London 2026
Marathon culture, British travel, and the strange relationship between endurance and place.
London 2026 follows a marathon journey and the wider experience around it. The research extends beyond the race into the city, the preparation, the spectators, the rituals, the travel, and the unexpected details that make an experience memorable.

Costa Rica

Fieldwork project
Costa Rica
Speed, style, landscape, and the experiences found away from the expected route.
Costa Rica will explore the relationship between movement, place, environment, hospitality, and discovery. The project is interested in what happens when the route becomes part of the experience, and when the most useful observations happen outside the obvious destination.

Japan 2025
An eleven-day research journey through racing, design, food, travel, and the experience of moving through Japan.
Japan 2025 was Speedstyle Labs’ first full series of research projects. The journey moved from Narita and Tokyo to Nagoya, Suzuka, Kyoto, and back again around the Japanese Grand Prix.
Listen later
Selected experiences will become Speedstyle Stories podcast episodes.
The audio will extend the field notes, conversations, observations, and questions that begin here.
The archive is still being built.
Each experience begins with a place, an event, or a reason to go. The stories come later.
Some will become field notes. Some will become visual essays. Some may become products, conversations, or Speedstyle Stories podcast episodes.
The work is to be present, pay attention, and understand what the experience is really asking of the people inside it.
