WHAT WE DO

Creative programmes and strategic propositions

We’ve curated exhibitions, delivered activity programmes and publications, and shaped the purpose and identity of the organisations and institutions that house them.

Smart responses to changing places

Facing uncertain futures, we’ve been speculating about cities and high streets, museums and shops, communities, work and education.

Collaborative processes to spark change

We’ve designed workshops and facilitated conversations, enabling big, complex and/or diverse groups of people articulate and shape their ideas

Learning and skills for a new generation

We create tools, formats and programmes, that motivate and inspire learners to unlock their potential and shift their horizons

Cultivating communities and networks

We’ve created structures and invitations, designed interactions and engagement, and supported people as they come together for a purpose.
