These projects will come to life as a wide range of deliverables: decks, websites, photography, film, animation, publications, and product visualizations.The ideal candidate has impeccable graphic design chops—excellent typography, smart grids, and organized systems thinking. As part of a small team, you also need to bring your ideas to life by stepping outside of graphic design, role-switching between taking photos, animating, prototyping, or writing.We’re creating a language of design simplicity, clarity, and rational thought. It’s no-frills and utilitarian. We usually produce quality by deleting rather than adding. This puts a greater importance on the execution and craftsmanship of the distilled elements.In addition to being interested in people and the planet, the ideal candidate needs to be curious about science, technology, engineering (and even a little math). Our team is constantly trying to simplify and humanize the complexity of these things. You are a team player with a "no task is too small" attitude.

We treat everything with craft and hold high standards here, regardless of the medium or audience. The ideal candidate possesses an entrepreneurial spirit, is unfazed by ambiguity, and doesn’t need clarity to start creating. You take big abstract concepts and make clear moves to execute them. You ask for a lot of responsibility and creative ownership. There's not a lot of handholding here.
