Kohler Health brought Dekoda to market with the goal of changing how people approach everyday health. For this major launch, a leading agency contacted DNGR Ltd. to shape the CG story, manage key aspects of the ad’s pacing, and deliver a complete suite of digital imagery. The campaign needed to introduce new technology in a format that felt both bold and attainable, blending live action with best-in-class CGI.

Our responsibility began with a focus on animation. We built detailed motion sequences that reveal how Dekoda’s spectroscopic sensors and core technology work, breaking down complex science into visuals that are easy to understand. These animations highlight the intelligence behind every insight, giving viewers a clear sense of the product’s value without falling back on technical jargon or visual noise.

Addressing a sensitive subject, gut health and stool analysis, required a measured creative approach to avoid being too explicit about the matter, but still be able to fully communicate the purpose of the product. Fluid simulations played a critical role on this:
Instead of literal representations, we used abstract visual language to show the product’s relevance and elevate the narrative, keeping the viewer engaged and comfortable. Every detail, from color choice to light direction, was intentional and rooted in a sense of calm and trust.

Our team also created dynamic CG environments, building out bathroom scenes that support an aspirational, relaxed lifestyle. These spaces were designed to blend with Kohler’s broader brand vision, helping users see Dekoda as a natural extension of their routines. Alongside the main ad content, we produced a collection of stills tailored for social and digital campaigns, giving Kohler Health versatile assets for launch communications.

Collaboration was essential. From initial direction to final edit, we worked closely with the client and the lead agency, refining the cadence and style of the ad to ensure clarity and consistency at every step.

By the end of the campaign, the work brought Dekoda to life in a way that feels direct, approachable, and quietly transformative; positioning the brand confidently within the home tech landscape.
