Who’s the zebra?

Release The Zebra is a female-led design studio founded by French Creative Director Anaïs Lobmeyer. What started as a one-woman show has grown into a small but mighty team of creatives collaborating to craft bold campaigns for cultural and creative organisations.

Before diving into design, Anaïs directed large-scale historical productions in France. With over a decade of experience across live performance and visual storytelling, she now leads a studio that helps organisations stand out with campaigns that are strategic and full of character.

But why a zebra?

The zebra is a nod to high-potential individuals who don’t quite fit in a box. Release The Zebra is about unlocking your full creative power and letting it run wild (preferably in technicolor). We believe in unleashing bold ideas, owning your uniqueness, and doing things a little differently. The work is serious. The vibe? Not so much.

What We Stand For

  • We celebrate diversity

    Our multicultural background keeps our minds open and our ideas fresh. We believe great design is inclusive, accessible, and celebrates diversity in all its shades (just like our color palettes).

  • We set the bar high

    We pour our hearts (and a little bit of caffeine) into every project. Our clients trust us because we care deeply about the details and consistently deliver work that exceeds expectations.

  • We give back to the creative community

    We believe in sharing what we know. Anaïs mentors design students, and regularly joins universities and design schools as a guest lecturer, from Melbourne to Paris.

  • We’re optimistic by design

    We’re life lovers, glass-half-full people, and firm believers that creativity can make things better. Every challenge is an opportunity to experiment, to grow, and to have a little fun along the way. Optimism fuels our process and it shows in the work.

  • We believe in collaboration, not hierarchy

    We see our clients as partners, not paychecks. Open conversations, mutual respect, and full transparency are at the core of how we work. We believe the best creative work happens when everyone feels heard, trusted, and excited.

  • We love a challenge

    Whether it’s designing an ambitious campaign or running a marathon, we thrive on pushing limits. We bring the same energy and curiosity to every brief. Nothing’s too big, too bold, or too weird for us.

A great show deserves more than a generic poster.

Let’s create something people can’t ignore.
