Ethnographic Research

Observing situations, analysing challenges and identifying opportunities

• Observation and situational ethnographic research
• Personas, stakeholder mapping and analysis
• Journey mapping, task analysis, and critical thinking exercises
• Market, trend, and opportunity identification
• Product pipelines, and portfolio mapping

Ideation Workshops & Creative Spaces

Building solutions, testing assumptions and identifying routes forward

• Ideation workshops in-house or at our Bristol studio
• Collaborative, creative workspaces to share and build ideas
• Concept sprints, creative matrices, and team concept building
• Modelling, mock-ups, storyboarding and prototyping

SLA Prototyping

• Multiple resins available to match material needs (i.e heat, flex, stretch)
• Rapid turnaround and well suited to higher volumes
• Low cost

FDM Prototyping

• Various polymers available (Ceramic, Glass Filled, TPE, ABS, PLA)
• Well suited to structural and performance testing
• Very low cost
• Rapid turnaround

Rapid Injection Moulding

• Compatible with 3D printed moulds or machined inserts
• Well suited to small components
• Provides testing of production polymers
• Useful for validating material specific performance, i.e flammability, tensile or flexural strength

Silicone and PU Casting

• Available with either Silicone or PU materials
• Utilises 3D printed moulds
• Food safe materials available
• Allows for stretchable or flexible components
• Produces custom seals and diaphragm components

Rapid Machining

• Used with common materials and Polymers (i.e Aluminium and ABS)
• Useful for early CE and compliance testing without tooling
• Provides consumer durable components and parts
• Can be used for initial batch production
