What We Do And How
Space (in all terms) is what we love the most, but we are perfectly aware how experience of it is being made of multiple elements including services and processes, involved in it, products inhabiting it and of course people and communities. So we design different elements that organise into integrated systems together. We also don’t see any divisions and barriers between physical and digital dimensions, but see it as a continuum in which we live nowadays.
We are experienced in dealing with both private and public environments, with companies and administration, but the best way to describe our work is thinking of (space) pirates or hackers — getting into system and tinkering it step by step. We believe in big strategic visions and their importance and always maintain continuity in our work, however we understand that some(many)times in extremely fast changing environment you have to operate first of all with things in hand and make your way forward in small steps.
We work this way also to be more efficient in dealing with “dark matter” untangling its complexity patiently. It is true that consultancy work model is limited in possibility to produce real impact on deep organisational processes, that’s why being small we infiltrate the system building profound connections with all the crucial elements in it.
We believe that designers don’t have to (only) solve problems anymore, but are capable of affecting bigger contexts and environments, from which problems originate at first hand. This requires a new toolbox and approaches which we are building for ourselves constantly based on each situation.
We understand deep connection between strategic design and design fiction as a way to access it. We build stories as relational environments that bring all the different levels of project together, communicate it in the most accessible way and guide its development.
We see people that collaborate with us not as a workforce or resources, but important actors, and their professional and personal development is an integrated part of our projects and work.
With people we like to form various constellations where INTER-stellar dimension is crucial, as relational dynamics is the point that drives all work and in the small environment of spaceship that becomes even more evident.
We embrace the cultural variety of all space creatures and in our little crew constantly learn from the differences in its members backgrounds.
