We create extraordinary projects with extraordinary people that would not otherwise happen. Exploring design’s close interconnections with contemporary culture—we create opportunities for the community, search for liveability and generate impact through placemaking.

 
 

As part of ongoing commissions like MPavilion and Living Cities Forum, we are able to work with amazing artists, designers and thinkers to initiate valuable conversations about the world we live in.
