PHILOSPHY

Objects + Spaces are events without meanings - only becoming meaningful through the affordances of possible interactions - through thought, experience + relation. These affordances are influenced by the qualitative dimension of the emotional + physical connections between user, object,environment, and setting.

The connections we make are the essence of our experience and influence our thoughts, feelings, attitudes and opinions about the world around us - essentially making our reality. Design as a medium plays an important role in the creation and depth of these connections - influencing how we interact within and perceive our existence.

Design has a duty to consider this impact on the human experience, on the natural world and those we share it with - adding to the beauty of both individual and shared experiences - while leaving it better than how we found it.

approach

Our approach is very methodical and places the user, product, and the environment at the center - carefully considering and curatingall aspects of each project in both form and function - engaging the senses, creating a sense of presence and awareness, and allowing for the imagination of an existence that transcends the moment into a broader context.

We have worked as a designers, builders, merchants, strategists, and business owners - balancing creativity, strategy and fiscal responsibility. These experiences afford the unique skill set of not only being able design and lead the creative process, but also drive strategy and execution across multiple disciplines.
