After Hours Lab

A Paper Napkin IP company.

Affecting change in existing frameworks to make a difference.

Where rules fade, ideas ignite!

When your day ends, the After Hours Lab begins. This is the space between structure and possibility. Here, familiar boundaries soften and new perspectives reveal opportunities that routine thinking cannot reach.

We question the expected and explore beyond the direct line of sight. Working in the overlooked spaces of established thinking allows us to uncover paths that are often missed yet full of potential.

We recognise the value in early ideas and shape them into strong, defensible intellectual property. Our approach turns raw inspiration into outcomes built for long-term clarity and purpose.

About Us

At the After Hours Lab, we believe progress is often sparked in the quieter moments: late nights, open questions, thoughtful sketches, and ideas that challenge convention.

We think differently and see differently. Innovation thrives where curiosity meets discipline. Our environment supports exploration and refinement, allowing new ideas to grow into intellectual property with genuine impact.

Our mission is to shift trajectories and create IP that strengthens industries, expands possibilities, and supports meaningful progress for the future... and for all.

The After Hours Perspective

We approach each challenge with a simple principle: If a solution feels obvious, it is already behind the curve.

Our work begins where familiar approaches level off. We look for new angles, alternative viewpoints, and fresh interpretations. This is not creativity for creativity's sake. It is thoughtful exploration that reveals outcomes conventional thinking cannot reach.

"If youpracticewithinnorms, you will alwaysbe normal. If youexploretheinexplicable, you will eventuallyfind reason."
