ABOUT US
We Believe in Community, Diversity, Inclusion and Collaboration.
Family run design business with 20+ years' experience. You have an idea for an office or commercial space. We have the imagination and know-how to turn it into reality.
From quirky, kooky and cool, to sophisticated luxury, we’ve been there and designed that. We designed Facebook’s first London offices and we’ve designed the offices of Disney, KPMG and Adobe, too. All the while ensuring the spaces reflected the client’s culture and values. But it’s not just about the brands we’ve worked with — it’s about who we are and what we stand for. We are a family run business and we treat our clients like our tribe. We believe in community, communication and inclusion through design. We also believe in optimising each space we touch; both aesthetically and functionally.
As experienced industry experts we have developed strong working relationships with contractors and other specialist disciplines.
We’re design-crazed and obsessed with the intricate nuances of design. There’s no doubt about that. But beyond stirring ourselves crazy at colour palettes and new office furniture, we believe design has a purpose. For us, design is about inclusion; it’s about community. It’s about taking a space and optimising it for a client and their staff on a functional level, so as to ensure it fosters community and inclusion, as well as productivity in the workplace. At the same time, we need to ensure it’s aesthetically pleasing and aligned with company values and culture.
We’ve been in business for over twenty years. We know — it’s a long time; we’re impressed too.
We’ve been in business for over twenty years. We know — it’s a long time; we’re impressed too. In that time, we’ve been awarded the Housing Award for the Ujima Housing Scheme, been a finalist in the Mixology Awards and our founder, Daniel Taylor, became a member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) for services to Business Design and Workplace Diversity.
Through all this, we’ve remained a family run business with down-to-earth values. We believe in treating our customers like our tribe; we believe in diversity in the workplace; and we believe in giving clients a product that’s better than that offered elsewhere. Of course, we also believe in great design and communication, and inclusion through design. We set out to leave a legacy and we’re making headway towards that goal!
