OUR PROCESS
01.
Tell us
about yourself
The foundation of our discovery process is rooted Appreciative Inquiry. That is, we come searching for what’s right, not what’s wrong –so we can help you build upon it. Of course we’ll learn about your perceived strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats. And we’ll analyze data and bring our industry knowledge like you’d expect us too. But most times, what we’re really looking for is your originating ideas, that sparkle in your eye that became your reason for being.
Design
for Humans
02.
People first. It’s the simplest way to understand our multidisciplinary design thinking approach. Part art, part science, our development process focuses on the change nature we hope to achieve – perceived or actual. Tethered to what’s economically possible, we’re able to develop innovative ideas to better connect people to your brand.
03.
Addition
by Subtraction
When it comes to design, we believe less is more. We believe that good design is approachable, unobtrusive, and practical. And that its inherent nature should exude value from its simplicity. This is how we think and how we iterate. More on the Dieter Rams principles of good design can be found HERE.
Creative
Application
& Presentation
04.
Everybody loves a good reveal. In the final application stage work is applied and presented in its various context. Iteration continues until finessed into final form and approved before being packaged and shipped out the door.
