Sustainability, Finalist
Verified Materials Transparency

We initially created the tool for our work with a multinational technology company following the . The firm has since begun to share how it uniquely connects all design phases, impacts, and contract documents.

Experience Design, Honorable Mention
Revealing Krishna: Journey to Cambodia鈥檚 Sacred Mountain

We worked with the Cleveland Museum of Art, a long-time client, on the 鈥淩evealing Krishna鈥� exhibition to transport visitors to the dramatic floodplains of southern Cambodia and show the life story of the sculpture 鈥淜rishna Lifting Mount Govardhan,鈥� spanning 1,500 years and three continents. We lent our expertise from decades of theater design to create appropriate mood, movement, color, and direction for the augmented reality experience. We collaborated with the exhibit team on material use, lighting, geometries, and control solutions for the interactives to bring the entire experience to life.
