creative works
We produce strategic thinking, powerful storytelling, and award-winning content to build brands around the world.
Our Name
Chimera: According to Greek mythology, a chimera is a creature with a lion’s head, the body of a goat, and the tail of a snake. Over time, the word came to mean anything mythical, unbelievable, or outrageously creative.
Creative: the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality
Works: the entire compilation of an artist’s or writer’s achievements; all of the extra things that may be offered.
Chimera is pronounced:
Ki - as in “kite”
mare - as in the horse
uh - as in “uh, yeah!”
As it relates to our work, Brand Strategy is represented by the lion’s head (the brains), Brand Design by the body of the goat (the foundation), and Brand Activation by the tail of the snake (the constant motion).
