The philosophy here follows Nietzsche's formula for happiness: a Yes, a No, a straight line, a goal.
The goal is to create work that is innovative, inspired, relevant and authentic. The straight line is inspired by minimalism, honest material, and elegance in both a functionally fulfilling and expressive way. The Yes and No derive from business conducted in a straightforward, communicative, and accountable manner.
