Gourmet, with a wink. A new taste of playful indulgence.
We Kern, Cultures.
A brand's power lies in the balance between its constant strategy (The Frame) and its dynamic conversation with culture (The Flow). We are the strategic ally who architects this relationship with intellectual rigour and honest counsel.
The Clarity Framework™
Step 1
Diagnosis: Architecting The Frame
A phase of pure intellectual rigor. Through deep research and challenging questions, we unearth the foundational truths of the business and the culture it operates in.
Step 2
Distillation: Defining The Flow
Here, we transform raw insight into a sharp, focused strategic narrative. This is the ‘new lens,’ the singular idea that will guide every future expression of the brand.
Step 3
Design: The Expression
Only with a rock-solid strategy do we design. This is the disciplined application of creativity to give the brand’s conviction an elegant and enduring form.
Step 4
Your Strategic Safety Net
Our role extends beyond design. We provide the honest counsel and strategic framework that empowers leaders to take ambitious leaps with conviction, fortified by a partner invested in their success.
Our partnerships are selective. The impact is significant. We measure success not in the volume of our work, but in the enduring value and conviction we help create.

Shriya brings a level of professionalism that is hard to match. She is simply amazing and her creativity goes well beyond any bounds I have ever seen. During her time at UMS, she made the selling a lot easier and we saw the sales revenue multiply. I wish her all the best for her future assignments.
⎯ UMAR AMIN, Senior Sales Manager, UMS Conferences 
I have worked with Shriya for more than two years and she is an integral part of all our projects. She brings a lot of fresh ideas to the table and is always willing to do that extra bit to make the project a great success from a design perspective. Her style of design and ideas are fresh and I would highly recommend working with Shriya and her team at Kern Culture.
⎯ SANJAY SWAMY, Co-Founder & Director Partnerships, VIBE Projects
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone at Kern Culture for being the wonderful support system during the past 1 year for us when we were establishing the conferences vertical for Khaleej Times. As a new vertical for a reputed brand, it was of prime importance for us to work with someone who understands the sensitivities of an established brand like Khaleej Times but still brings in the freshness required today. I also appreciate the fact that you guys have gone out of the way and worked beyond the stipulated terms and helped us. Wishing you guys all the best in your future endeavours.
⎯ ABHINAV MISHRA, Head Of Conferences, Khaleej Times
I’ve really enjoyed working with Shriya because she brings big agency skills and experience and a small agency commitment to your project. We approached the work as real collaborators, and what came out of it even though there were disagreements and arguments, is significantly better than our original brief. She wasn’t just an executor and routinely gave us strategic input from her perspective. I love that there is no ego, it was always about the project. You can easily buy skills but it’s hard to find someone who cares. Kern Culture is an extension of her.
⎯ ARJUN RASTOGI, Co-Founder & Chief Strategist, Double Think Media
I have worked with Shriya Nagi for over a year. In addition to superior design and technology skills, Shriya brings a level of professionalism that is hard to match. On the creative side, she learns and understands her client’s needs and then delivers design that is fresh and well-conceived. She is a very talented designer and is technically knowledgeable in areas of print, online, social media and web production. Shriya was instrumental in developing our UMS Brand to what it has become today. Her can-do attitude and creative design solutions provided our conferences team with design collateral’s that met our editorial, printing and events production goals. She always went above and beyond to deliver outstanding results.
⎯ SANDEEP POKKALI, General Manager, UMS Conferences
I found Shriya to be very creative with a keen sense for design, UX and aesthetics. Her design strategy is practical, simple yet powerful. During our project phase, she always delivered on time, being open to amendments, practical and not-so practical suggestions. She is equipped to deliver high quality work on a tight budget.
