Innovation is lonely. Innovation needs a mate.
Hello design, come here often?
We started our firm on the basis of two things: innovation is the only
sustainable competitive advantage and design is the closest potential relative
of innovation known to us. Hence, we assert Innovation + Design equals something greater.
sustainable competitive advantage and design is the closest potential relative
of innovation known to us. Hence, we assert Innovation + Design equals something greater.
We see innovation as a partner in the world of design. And vice versa. This
has meant some rather interesting projects for our firm and some even more
interesting friends in the world of innovation, design, creativity and yes, business.

interesting friends in the world of innovation, design, creativity and yes, business.
Therefore, we will interview these friends and offer up their
perspective as confirmation or contrast to the marriage of Innovation and
Design. Essentially, this series of posts is the "let them speak now or
forever hold their peace," post. If there are no conscientious objections,
the two will be wed and from this day forward, and well, you know the rest of
the story.

We will be interviewing people in innovation, new product development
and design for large and small brands, and hopefully you'll recognize all of
them in some way. They will all start with the premise of two things that can be
enjoyed and make a strong contribution on their own, but when paired they
achieve something greater than the math of one plus one equals two.
