Our aim is to design places that people feel well in, that respond to their demands and that have a positive impact on their surroundings. Good design is therefor important. With the Giant Dolls’ house, we conduct community outreach projects and engage large disparate groups in a community to think about their environment. We have also been trying to create a platform that brings researchers and the community together around the many coastal issues that affect the built environment.
Creativity and in-depth research drive all our projects, from urban plans, to houses, to furniture and dolls-houses. Nature and the environment feature largely in our work as we feel buildings can become uninvited guests to the environment.
