Research, workshops, public consultations, concept, prototyping, design, production, installation. Designing a process is basically designing a project.

To understand a space and its realities, each project starts with an extensive research phase. We study the landscape lines, look for hidden paths, search for urban legends, and consider the poetry in a problem. We work closely with the local population through workshops and public consultations. This allows us to develop a relevant concept for a specific context.

We build prototypes everyday. To fight the fear of the blank page, to explore ideas and designs, to test our projects with people, and through weather and other environmental challenges. Models, cardboard machines, and technology on a 1:1 scale allow us to evaluate their interactivity.

We believe that magic can only happen through the illusion that technology isn’t there. But it is, invisible, hidden within the installation to better serve the interaction. All technological production is done in-house, to better control the product quality.

We work with multiple collaborators from various fields of expertise, including architects, chefs, choreographers, engineers, scientists, historians and more. Local partners are also involved in project deployment to guarantee proper integration to the space.
