Studio
A studio for the long edit.
Atelier was founded in 2013 by a designer and an engineer who were tired of the gap between the deck and the shipped product. The studio works on brand, product, and the places they meet.
Principles
Four rules we work to
- 01
The brief is signed
A project does not start until the client signs a written brief. It is the single source of truth for every later decision.
- 02
Ship weekly
Design and build happen in the same room. A staging URL goes up every week, not at the end of the engagement.
- 03
Hand over a system
We hand over a documented system a team can extend. A project that needs us forever is a failure on our part.
- 04
Measure against the baseline
Outcomes are measured against the baseline set at kickoff, not a vanity metric invented for the case study.
