Client holding areas are the dedicated spaces where clients, talent, guests, or decision-makers can wait, review, and stay comfortable during production. They help separate the working set from the people who still need to be present.
At RIOT, holding areas are treated as part of the overall production experience. They make the day feel more organised and more considered for everyone involved.
The production experience is shaped by more than what happens on set. Support spaces matter. They help the day feel more professional and reduce the stress that can build when everyone shares the same working area.
RIOT treats client experience as part of the production design.

Explore the Project →RIOT designed and built AltSounds end to end: the brand, the product, the taste engine, the phone experience, the speed and the search. A full-bleed music video channel you can leave on all day, and the clearest picture of how we build web products.
Explore the Project →Coach took two stories to Cannes Lions 2026: &Coach, its new Gen Z platform of shared authorship, and a Palais talk on reading culture instead of chasing it. RIOT cut the panel recap and CMO Joon Silverstein's talk. The recap moves the way the platform does, between the room, where creators, athletes and strategists shared one backdrop, and the hand-written cards that give each &Coach story its rhythm. Nerves. Dreams. Us.
