The Bungalow Studio SL

What The Bungalow Studio SL does

The Bungalow Studio SL is a privately held creative production company headquartered at C/Pallars 84 in Barcelona, Spain, founded in 2010 and operating under the trade name Bungalow Studio. The firm provides end-to-end animation, illustration and film production services — including 2D and 3D animation, character animation, motion graphics, art direction, illustration, cinematography and post-production — delivered as finished visual content rather than as a packaged software product. Service delivery combines an in-house creative team of approximately six core members (Ibon Landa as Director and co-founder, plus illustrators, producers and post-production specialists) with an extended network of freelance animators, sound designers, music composers and color grading partners mobilized per project.

Revenue is generated exclusively on a project-based professional services model, with bespoke quotes tied to scope and complexity, and no publicly disclosed pricing. The go-to-market motion is sales-led and routed through three channels: direct engagement with major consumer brands, agency-of-record partnerships with advertising networks (Tiempo BBDO, Contrapunto BBDO, DDB Shanghai, VCCP, DoubleYou, Drop and Vase, Common Sense, Serena Dubai), and inbound demand driven by a decade-deep public portfolio on wearebungalow.com, Vimeo, Instagram, Facebook, Behance and Twitter. Customers span at least ten verticals — automotive (SEAT, BMW, Cupra, Mobile.de, Audi), energy (Naturgy, Iberdrola), retail (IKEA, Wallapop, Coppel), sports (Nike x FC Barcelona), food and beverage (ColaCao, Torres), banking and payments (EVO, Bizum), cosmetics and fragrance (Equivalenza, STR8), pharmaceutical (Buscomint), government (Smart Dubai), publishing (Blackie Books) and music artists (Nubla, Haelos, Primavera Sound/James Rhodes) — with campaigns executed across Spain, Germany, China, Dubai, Canada and Mexico.

The studio has accumulated an unusually deep awards track record for a six-person boutique, including 15+ LAUS medals between 2011 and 2020, a Vimeo Staff Pick in 2018, a SOUNDIE 2018 award, a BFFF 2018 Best Film (Beauty and Cosmetic), an El Sol 2011 Silver and the Gran Premio Inspirational 2011. The company has no disclosed funding rounds, no subsidiaries, no parent, no patents or trademarks, no certifications, and no software product, API or SDK — all of which indicates a bootstrapped, founder-led craft services operation rather than a venture-backed technology business.
