AYCAS Studios is the creative services arm of AYCAS Investments (Pvt) Ltd, rooted in Harare. We inherit the studio practice, team discipline, and client history of Kingspirit Imageroom (Lusaka, founded 2016) — now re-housed and extended under the AYCAS Studios brand.
The story behind this name is shorter than it looks — and the craft record behind it is longer than a new shop's.
Lusaka, Zambia. A studio practice covering brand, photography, film, graphic design, advertising, corporate identity, marketing strategy, web, and social. Clients across Zambian banking, financial services, broadcasting, and professional services. Nine years of delivered work.
Founded as the creative services arm of AYCAS Investments (Pvt) Ltd. Reg. No. 56514A0282025. Built on the same studio discipline, with a widened catalog that adds AI agent team architecture and whole-business venture build for founders.
AYCAS Studios is the public-facing brand. Kingspirit stays on the Zambian register as the legacy entity. The service catalog, team discipline, and published standards belong to AYCAS Studios now.
Nine years of studio work doesn't reset when the brand name changes. The clients, the craft record, and the team discipline travel with us.
— Augustine Gabaza, Principal

Decisions, escalations, and pricing commitments on every AYCAS Studios engagement route through Gus directly. Substitute Principal named in writing where cover is needed for more than forty-eight hours.
We don't hide behind a logo. Every deliverable is attributable to a specific person. Every engagement is introduced with the named team at kickoff. New specialist roles are scoped by the team architect when a brief demands one.
The disciplines on every engagement: engagement leadership, research & intake, brand strategy, visual design, film & motion, web & digital, social & content, PR & publicity, copy & editorial, finance & contracts, quality assurance, and team architecture. Additional specialists are scoped per engagement where the brief demands — operating capacity, legal operations, photography direction, or others.
Positioning, not posturing. These are the operating beliefs that shape every AYCAS Studios engagement.
We publish the work. Brand books, websites, cover art, videos, pitch packs — referenceable, not whispered about. Nothing in our window is stock or filler.
Our scope, agreement, and pricing structure live on the public website. A serious client can read how we work before they enquire. Clarity is a trust move.
Named specialists carry every deliverable from intake to ship. The workflow is AI-augmented; the calls are human. We're transparent that it is.
