Our Team
Aligned with purpose
Our diverse portfolio of clients and projects has built our reputation for top-tier work and we’re supported by a select group of experts and partners who are all motivated by the same passion for creativity to drive positive change.
Our culture is built on our shared values—guiding who we work with, who we support and our strategic decision-making.
Our Values
Heart-Led Purpose
We work with organizations that are motivated by a desire to do good. We may not be saving the world, but we’ve found our cause in helping others who, in their own way, are bold enough to take a shot at it. Our work must resonate beyond ourselves, addressing issues that matter deeply to us and our partners.
Human-Centred Connection
We build bridges that inspire action through care and community. Rather than leveraging fear or shame, we create brands that people are drawn to join, celebrate, and champion. We strengthen connections between people and create things that inspire others to act. People are drawn to things they feel connected to, and it’s our job to make that possible.
Collaborative Creativity
Our success is measured by our clients' success. We honor diverse voices, history and expertise, there's no one-size-fits-all formula. Our role is to deeply understand, shape and bring to life what will lift people up and move them forward.
Design Optimism
We believe design thinking offers pathways to a more just and ecologically sustainable world. Our process—research, testing, activating, and refining addresses root causes rather than symptoms. We translate visionary ideas into tangible realities that move us toward collective liberation.
