Meet the team

 

Design phrase you live by?

Design is the management of change.

I have learned that the best part of the day is when my assumptions have been proved incorrect and someone has changed my view based on sound reasoning – its like a revolution for one!

How would you describe the Maynard team?

Eclectic. Many of our team have been drawn to our business from parallel disciplines, at the heart of it we are drawn together by the social impact of what we do.

What do you do if you get a creative block during a project?

I change my space or the format I’m working in. Sometimes I brainstorm with paper and card in the back garden, I like using physical space to structure information.
