Let's work together

Who we are

We are artist-led software engineers and product designers who help companies discover high value opportunities using design thinking and ethnographic research.

We are holistic thinkers who draw across disciplines. We work inside and outside the box. We’re street smart. We see through narratives, and aren’t distracted by trends. We’re your solution to metrics-driven neurosis. We embrace complexity and we’re comfortable with chaos.

Design research

We use qualitative research methods to identify both entrenched and emerging behaviours. We help you understand motivations and identify the path forward.

Design thinking

We use co-design methods, working closely with the people we design for. We take cues from them and pair them with industry best practices to produce unbiased, high value products.

Development

We are full stack developers with 15 years of production experience. We have high standards and deliver reliable, maintainable products.

Strategic futures

We help articulate visions and develop plans to achieve them.

No absolutes

Kind Human questions narratives and dogmas. We believe there are two sides to every story, and we have actively worked to become experts at suspending our personal opinions and judgements in the pursuit of genuine knowledge. We are non-ideological and non-partisan.

We’re not data nerds, purists, or bull-headed “experts”. We believe in beauty, complexity, nature, and humanity. If any of this resonates with you, or if you’d like to hear more, please get in touch.
