Story & Collaborations

Design agency with strengths in management consulting, strategic design, value-based actions, and the desire to create a genuine impact on both the businesses, wellbeing, and learning of companies and their people.

BERLIN 2018

What if we can work with real meaning and design impactful solutions for years to come? What if we can cooperate with people who share an equal curiosity towards life and a drive to improve themselves and their organization?

I was researching to find a way to increase the value of growth consulting for customers. I had over 30 interviews with founders, CEOs, business developers, and designers who represented companies of different sizes and industries.

THESE WERE MY TWO MAIN FINDINGS

Future way of working

Customers value that the knowledge stays in the organization, which wasn’t always the case. People get inspired when they are part of the bigger picture. Organizations are not exploiting the creative potential of their people in the best way. Thus, we want to be an integrated member of the clients' team, help people solve business problems effectively, and collectively think and act in a way that liberates their creative potential.

By integrating into customer teams we want to bring business knowledge, new information, ideas, solutions, and frameworks, but also facilitate the creative thinking of the people of the organizations. That is how we find motivation and inspiration to execute those growth stories and create new businesses.

Comprehensive toolbox

Customers value that designers have a wide toolbox. Creative problem-solving requires a comprehensive understanding of business and its key figures and empathy for different roles, cultures, and goals. It also calls for an ability to comprehend how rapidly evolving machine understanding changes how we observe and make data-based decisions. Through design, we can create a sustainable future, and with rapidly evolving machine understanding we can make meaningful decisions based on information that enables real change.

HELSINKI 2020, MITTE WAS BORN

Helsinki 2023. Exceptional times, both behind and ahead of us. 

What was learned along the way? To start, the emphasis of designing with numbers is continuously increasing, with utilising different dataflows becoming crucial to support design work. Secondly, goal-oriented experiments should be added to budgeting to leave enough room for renewal and change. Meanwhile, the skill to operate in different ecosystems has become vital for creating additional value. The importance of sustainability remains as significant as ever, if not more so.
