House of Oddities

House of Oddities (or HOO for short) publicly launched as a fully independent creative agency in January 2024. It’s one of the 0.01% of agencies that is owned and run a woman of colour, already making it somewhat of a unicorn in this industry. But that’s not the only thing that makes it so special.

In less than 12 months HOO has transformed from a kitchen table startup with £200 in the bank into a million-pound agency working with stellar clients including Tony’s Chocolonely, NSPCC, Childline, Oxfam, NBC Universal, National Geographic and the prestigious Sport England – This Girl Can account. So how did they do it? Simple: by not being traditional ‘ad agency’ people in the first place, by ensuring that 100% of their team come from the most underrepresented groups in the UK's creative sector and by sticking to their mantra that ‘difference makes a difference.’
