About this listen

Remote work isn't just surviving in creative industries—it's helping companies like Elephant Skin thrive on a global scale. Founded in 2017 by architect Henrik Driesen, this remote-first creative agency has transformed from two people with a vision to over 100 professionals operating across three continents. Their meteoric growth offers a compelling blueprint for building borderless businesses in specialized fields.

The company's origin reveals its ethos perfectly. Named after a message on a post-it note—"develop your elephant skin, focus and keep moving forward"—the agency embraced resilience and perseverance as foundational values. These principles guided their expansion from a lean startup to a major player in architectural visualization, now serving clients like Hilton, Marriott, and Royal Caribbean across 30+ cities worldwide.
