The Company You Keep is a design practice working on commissioned and self-directed studies between luxury, hospitality and the arts. Grounded in the position that design renders meaning into experience, typologies err to the experiential, spanning strategy, brand, installation, print, placemaking and digital. Precedent is drawn outside of categorical standards to form work that is both novel and distinct. Fundamental to our practice is a curatorial approach; instep with artists, makers and creators, that places brands in direct conversation with culture.
