commonground is where design meets positive social change
We are interested in how creativity, strategic thinking and a hands on approach can respond to tough social challenges. commonground's purpose is to bring designers together to collaborate with socially driven people and organisations.
mission
We believe good design can have a real impact on the way we experience the products and services we use: our mission is to use good design to tackle major social challenges.
commonground wants to demonstrate that design has a significant place in meeting the demands of our planet and people.
team
Founded by Bruno Taylor and Vincenzo Di Maria in 2010, commonground relies on the expertise of smart, passionate, empathetic people who are also talented and experienced. commonground brings together designers, researchers, strategists, project managers and anybody with an entrepreneurial attitude and innovative ideas. We work mostly in London and Lisbon, but we are often around Europe.
approach
commonground follows a proven design process where we involve the people we’re targeting at every stage.
We research, generate, develop, and test ideas that result in clearly defined proposals.
Then we work with our clients to help them implement and move each project forward independently.
