We are Threshold Our Vision & Mission
Our Vision
For culture, creativity, and technology to drive positive social and economic change.
At Threshold, we believe in the power of creativity to shape places, connect communities, and drive social and economic growth. As a UK-based creative agency specialising in digital placemaking, our vision is to reimagine public spaces through creativity, technology, and storytelling, creating accessible experiences that leave a lasting, tangible legacy.
By blending creativity with technology, we unlock new ways for people to experience and contribute to public life. From immersive digital trails to participatory community-led research-backed activity, our work transforms familiar spaces into platforms for connection, discovery, and shared ownership.
We don’t just create events – we create systems and opportunities that build skills and confidence and support long-term cultural development. We believe culture is infrastructure, it’s what helps places and people flourish and thrive.
Our Mission
Our mission is to harness creative digital placemaking to tackle the social and economic challenges facing communities today. Through innovative, digitally driven cultural interventions, we aim to create meaningful and lasting change in the places where we live, work, and connect.
What We Do
We design and deliver creative public programmes for Place: high-impact public experiences that strengthen civic pride and wellbeing and generate positive social and economic outcomes outside major cultural centres.
We build digital confidence for communities: We deliver accessible creative technology and digital skills programmes to close digital divides, support employability, and build resilience.
We demonstrate impact: We partner with councils, developers, BIDs, and cultural organisations to design, deliver, and evaluate cultural programmes and we evidence measurable social, economic, and environmental outcomes.
We research & innovate: Partnering with universities and industry to advance digital inclusion and innovations in placemaking while contributing to national debates on regeneration and digital futures.
Our projects are designed to drive the change we’re trying to make, they include everything from pop-up digital installations to multi-year creative strategies. Each one is designed with impact in mind, shaped by the people and places we serve.

Everything we do is guided by a commitment to equity, innovation, and legacy. Our mission is not just to deliver outstanding creative experiences, but to leave behind stronger networks, increased confidence, and tangible tools for future development.
