The idea

An Audi address. Designed for the US.

A retail identity that reads clearly from the road—and works for the people inside. K5 designed Audi’s US-market retail prototype, connecting architecture, interiors and customer journeys with the standards that make the program repeatable.

A little brilliance.
A little mischief.

K5’s Einstein character working on a laptop

Einstein has a small but spirited place in the K5 world. For us, he stands for a simple idea: have fun while being brilliant.

Ask the unexpected question. Make a new connection. Enjoy figuring it out. That spirit belongs in the work, too.

The wild hair is optional.
