  About our logo
  • Our logo is an ideogram for a seed.  Embraced by the communal circle of life, within is held the individual and the sprouting of an idea. 

    The seed reaches outward to touch the cycle of existence; the circle reaches inward, an umbilicus. 

    This is the connection, the JOINT.  Each project is nurtured by its relationship to the larger environment.
