We study how creative judgement forms, travels and lasts.

Most of what makes a creator good is never written down. We’re studying it with the people who hold it, and we’ll publish what we learn. The first papers are in preparation.

First papers in preparation

A colour-blocked design studio with terracotta, red, blue and sage walls: a pale sofa on a woven rug, people at desks and pinned-up work, others passing in a blur, beneath a row of images of drawings, materials and models.

Current studies

Status updated as the work moves

  1. A sketchbook open on a table: pencil studies of a car's profile on one page, chairs and handwritten notes on the other, with eraser crumbs beside it.

    How does a creative eye form?

    Following how senior designers decide what to pursue, refuse and change, one sketch at a time.

    StatusIn progress

  2. Material samples on a studio table, brick, terrazzo, stone, felt, brass and timber, each with a handwritten tag, and rolled drawings held with red bands.

    02

    What does a studio know that it never writes down?

    The reasons kept in reviews, margins, materials and habits, and how much of them can be kept.

    StatusIn progress

  3. A review wall pinned with prints, sketches and sticky notes, seen over the shoulder of someone studying it.

    03

    Can judgement travel without being flattened?

    How one studio’s eye carries across teams, projects and tools, and where it starts to drift.
