Practice.
Started some 30 years ago, our studios in New Zealand and Australia have been recognised with numerous awards in the fields of Interior design, Architecture and Product design. We believe design must always have people and environment at its centre, driving its purpose, upholding qualities of endurance and creating an environment where we can flourish.
People.
We start by asking questions. We are experts in our fields, but not necessarily in yours.
We begin broadly with very human questions around vision, transformation and purpose, then systematically dig deeper. What are your business imperatives, organisational requirements and project fundamentals? What are the quirks? Wat are the non-negotiables? We combine robust processes with creative alchemy.
Working closely with you, we build a comprehensive picture, then apply our expertise and imagination. True collaboration is fundamental to the way we operate with you.
What we do.
