A (re)introduction ✨

Hello there! For those of you who don’t yet know us, we thought we’d take a moment to introduce ourselves. And what better way of doing it than by writing about each other…

Eva on Finn 🛼

Finn is a lover of rollerblading, climbing trees and saying yes to things he probably shouldn’t.

He has two modes. In one he's a chaotic, joyful, idea filled ball of cheeky energy, and in the other he's solitary, thoughtful and reflective. The challenge is sometimes trying to structure and channel those energies to the task at hand…

Finn started life as a biochemist but thankfully decided it was all a bit dry. He likes to see the bigger picture (ironic coming microscopes) and is always expanding a problem to ask ‘how can this create a larger systemic impact’. He thinks in systems, and definitely gets his energy from bringing people together to have difficult conversations. When meeting new people he’ll often unsettle them with a curveball question, but it (normally) makes everyone closer in the end.

Working with Finn a lot of fun -  we see eye to eye and understand each other implicitly, but neither of us gets away without having to justify our thinking. We push each other to go one level deeper and its really rewarding.

Finn on Eva 🍋

Eva is a fan of all things purple, summer, and is weirdly obsessed with the lemon emoji.

She is a born creative - in life as in art. She applies her unique eye to everything around her from parties to thoughtfully designed products and ‘fun’ (ahem) web design side projects. She is the true perfectionist, and the ultimate finisher - sometimes having to be dragged away from a project or line of code and told that enough is enough.

Eva is an activist and feisty spirit with a keen sense of injustice and occasional unwillingness to compromise. She is brilliantly structured in her thinking, seeing with confidence and clarity what questions need to be answered and what steps are needed to answer them.

She got that from a rigorous background in industrial design, product design and UX research. She can definitely be a bit annoying to design with - she is strong willed and will pull apart a brief until its lying in little pieces all over the floor - but she normally puts its back together again in one piece.

I love working with Eva for the energetic way our thinking complements each other. I’m a starter and she's a brilliant finisher. I’m an ideater and she's a rigorous critic. But mostly it's the fun of getting lost in a problem together, and knowing we’ll find our way somewhere good.
