We try to be a laborotory for design, always questioning our job, and we also work for brands, so we try to make the link between those two approaches every day, they say.

A production process where design is not fully integrated will result in a monolithic design offering and a system that simply creates more and bigger things, in turn encouraging a culture of excess and waste, rather than a system of sustainability.
