has developed into an interdisciplinary design practice encompassing architectural and industrial design, furniture and interiors, graphic identity and corporate communications - a body of work characterized by conceptual explorations of narrative, transformation and multiplicity. While the search for the elemental is the defining aspect of their work, elements of drama and engagement – on intelle
ctual, emotional and physiological levels of experience - exemplify the firm’s projects. The creation of a narrative forms the conceptual point of departure for all of the firm’s work and is essentially a story inspired by the client. Be it about the quirks of the client, an image they wish to project, or even delved from a literary source, it is an interpretation of the client’s image, culture or brand – what the firm likes to describe as “narratives of inhabitation”. The firm’s award-winning and internationally recognized projects include advertising offices for Grip Limited and Zulu Alpha Kilo, Head Offices for Red Bull Canada and private residences in 10 Bellair and the Candy Factory condominiums. Other projects include the Museum of Canadian Contemporary Art (MoCCA), TNT and 119 Corbo clothing boutiques, and Blowfish Restaurants.
