ABOUT US

Step into our lab

Based here in London our team utilises state-of-the-art technologies and tools including laboratory equipment, laser cutters, 3D printers, mould casting, textile printing, textile dyeing, digital & hand embroidery and much more.

We are creative problem-solvers, using a systems-thinking approach to how we design, and we are ready to support you in your brand’s transition to the circular economy. We can evaluate your circular needs, perhaps a waste issue or do you require specific material? Then we present a selection of solutions depending on your requirements, do you need a solution for a one-off project or do you need an overhaul of ongoing products? Finally, we deliver your innovative solution to a high standard.

Whatever problem you have we can transform your problem into an innovative solution. Our agile studio working style lets us take risks, while we enjoy the results.
