Studio Updates
We launched a podcast!
This podcast focuses on how design thinking and systems practice can be used to help tackle wicked problems.
We completed a project with Global Orphan Project (Kasnas City)
Learn how we rethought wraparound care for families at risk of separation.
We help ventures
impacting the
of our world.
wicked problems
By facilitating and that centre the lived experience of the communities a venture is working to impact, we help founders find clarity, focus and fresh curiosity.
systems mapping
design thinking
Systems practice is a methodology for solving complex social and organizational problems by analyzing interconnected forces, relationships, and root causes instead of applying isolated, linear band-aid fixes.
A wicked problem in design thinking is a complex, shifting, and ill-defined issue that has no single right answer, no clear starting point, and no final stopping point
Design thinking is a human-centered, iterative problem-solving approach that focuses on deep user empathy to create practical and innovative solutions.

People have been given certain abilities and understandings and they've been placed in certain environments where they want to make a difference. They want to impact the world around them. And you're helping us to articulate ways to do so.
Our Process
From problem to outcome. We widen to listen, narrow to focus, widen again to explore, and narrow to act.
01
We start with you: your heart, your work and your challenges. We never assume we know it all.

“I think what was really great was, the activities were all purposeful, thoughtful, and creative, but without being childish… everyone in that room was really, really engaged, and there was initiative… the way you are thoughtful and caring for me, and like having these kind of conversations, trying to understand and flesh out the problem… holding up my values back to me was a really significant part of the process.”

Past Projects
The first diamond helps people understand, rather than simply assume, what the problem is. It involves speaking to and spending time with people who are affected by the issues. It places priority on place - context is key. What works in one place may not work in another.

Being part of JoyCorps’ Rural Enterprise Development workshop gave me valuable insights into how community-first, practical, and locally grounded approaches can create meaningful and sustainable change in rural communities. It was an enriching experience that I will carry forward in my own work.
