Inspire your future thinking + design
Specialist design led innovation consultancy that helps expert teams break new ground.
Incremental improvements to your existing products and services aren’t enough for today’s disruptive challenges. From emerging technologies, shifts in culture to accelerating climate change.
But let's face it, future opportunities can suffer from a lack of focus and expertise as you and your teams concentrate on the urgent day to day.
That’s why I provide innovation expertise through design-led special projects. To help you gain strategic lessons and inform your future design direction today.
“Matthew is an exceptional designer, one of the best I’ve worked with. He inspires all those he works with, challenging their preconceptions with assured confidence”
