Every commission is a new discovery
Curiosity and interest are at the heart of our work: no client is the same, and every design is therefore a discovery all over again. We look closely at what you as a client need and what occupies you. We translate this, in structured steps, into a design that fits exactly what you want to communicate.
20 years of broad experience
With this open and curious attitude we have worked for 20 years for a wide range of clients, from governments to sole traders, from start-ups to large companies, artists' collectives and international organisations. As a result we know what very different clients need in order to reach the best result, and we tailor our project approach to that.
Committed craftsmanship
We make sure our designs work for you as they should: that they last and are robust; clear and self-evident to use; and attractive and communicative. Whether they take centre stage or do their work more subtly. We therefore keep sharpening our professional knowledge and experience, and look into different techniques, materials and developments. We also have an extensive network of professionals (writers, communications specialists, photographers, developers, artists, builders, etc.) whom we can bring together around each brief when needed.
How we work
As a client, you remain closely involved throughout the design process, in the steps we go through. We always begin with a conversation in which we take the time to get to know your organisation, goals and wishes. Together we define the brief and the timeline, and we make clear agreements.
Then we get to work. We plan a moment to show our first proposals, which we discuss with you. In this way we check whether the look and feel is heading in the right direction, and whether your knowledge of your audience comes through. Based on your feedback we return with a follow-up design, with variants if needed.
Happy with your final choice? Then we make sure the definitive design is delivered or developed, ready to use.
