Welcome to our Durham studio
We’re all about the human element. Whether we’re working on a library, museum, hospital, or workplace, we take a research-based design approach that reveals the context and story of a place. Questioning core assumptions is our thing. It’s what allows us to shape experiences that promote understanding of self, appreciation of community, and empathy for others.
