A New York Pause Story

In a city that’s always in motion, O, EM, and Obi each find their own kind of quiet. From rooftops to bodegas to subway stations, their paths cross under the soft glow of the pause symbol — a reminder that even the bustling city, there’s space to breathe.

Obi stands above the New York skyline beneath a glowing pink pause symbol, reminding us to slow down and come home.
On the city’s edge, Obi watches the sky hum with color — a symbol calling for stillness, not action.
Energy Monster sits outside a New York City bodega, headphones glowing in the streetlight.
Streetlights, neon hums, and a bag of snacks — EM finds peace in the small pauses between chaos.
O stands on the 14th Street subway platform with a glowing NYC map in her belly, symbolizing inner navigation.
O’s reflection meets her in the tiled maze of the city — a quiet nod to the routes we trace inside and out.
O, EM, and Obi stand together in silhouette before the glowing NYC skyline at dusk.
Together again, under the same skyline glow — a perfect exhale to end the day.

The world will always move fast.
Please Hold Studio is here to remind you — slowing down is part of the story.
