Process
Seven steps from a conversation to a provenance record.
The free stage decides whether we should work together. The paid concept stage decides what the work should be.
01
Discover
A conversation, free of charge, to establish whether we are the right atelier for the work.
02
Cultural & personal brief
Who it is for, where it will live, what it must mean. Sources are identified and the scope defined.
Drawings and maquette

03
Concept & maquette
A paid design stage: research, drawings, a maquette or material samples. Approval before anything is built.
04
Material & engineering
Structure, weight, mounting, fire and humidity, site constraints — resolved with your architect or designer.
