how we work

We do design a little bit differently. We’ve got you covered every step of the way as we:

  • Understand your design intent

  • Collaborate with you to develop a concept that solves your design problem

  • Work with the opportunities and restraints of location, environment and site conditions

  • Manage project milestones with ease and precision: lead time, assembly, delivery, installation, maintenance and replacement parts will be all sorted.

Collaboration is at the heart of our designs. We’re a design practice that encourages collaboration from the early stages of a project. 

Sure, we could step through the design development process or manufacture a product that has already been designed. We could do it with our eyes closed! 

But our specialty is in integrating ourselves with your project and creating the designs with you. 

Why is this important? 

Because we’re problem solvers. Our experience and knowledge in the industry means we can anticipate issues and provide a solution before they become a problem.

You could say we do the hard thinking for you:

  • Are components easily replaceable/repairable?

  • What needs to be done to integrate lighting?

  • Do we need to allow for access?

  • How will the product be manufactured and will that process affect the lead time?

  • Designing products that require moulds - how does that work and how can we minimise budget implications?

Working through many of these processes at an early stage will ultimately provide you with a fully resolved product. This will save you time and money, reduce potential issues and reduce risk. 

All of this will make you, the client, satisfied and delighted with your Michelle Herbut I.D end product.
