To say the least, 2020 was an unprecedented year for the entire world. But, with adversity, we see opportunity and with challenge, we see innovation. That’s why we’ve highlighted how our whole team, the Austin, Miami San Francisco and Toronto industrial design firm faced these challenges and persevered!
