Project Partners
A dream team of designers to take on your biggest challenges.
We take on unique client projects just once a year.
The Summer Studio design teams are multidisciplinary experts pulled from the best design studios and universities in the country.
We assemble a unique dream team of designers from different companies just for your project. The Design Fellows bring disciplinary and industry expertise to your organization’s business challenges, while Principal Designers bring their expertise as excellent professors and designers to lead the work.
The volume of ideas and potential strategies in such a short time was more than we expected. We’re excited to work with new ways to think about challenges and opportunities.

Project Partners will be a crucial part of the Summer Studio process with opportunities for a project kick-off, check ins, and a final presentation of the work. Our goal is that you walk away with new intuition and solid information about the business problem and specific concept solutions created, vetted and iterated by our team. We will deliver a document that outlines our research, key insights, the concepts in a wireframe, storyboard or sketch form, and an archive of the numerous ideas that we considered along the way.

We believe in the exponential value of meeting and working together full-time in a studio environment. Because our Design Fellows come from all over the country, there is added importance to make our time together well scoped to the time we are together. We’ve found that a one week design sprint is enough time to research and conceptual innovative ideas for a client project, providing valuable insights and momentum to the project.
-
Each project is unique and we scope the project to the timeframe and a assemble the team of Design Fellows to respond to our client needs. If you’re curious to work with our team, then reach out to hello@thesummerstudio.co and we setup a time to explore your work and your goals.
