We work for people and organizations
who accomplish more.​
​
Whether it is a family home or a world-leading research laboratory, we find that people appreciate a design that assists them to perform their tasks well. Animate designed places are clean and open of course. And with the creation of strong, focused and a productive sense of place, we deliver spaces where the sublime weightlessness of everyday activities are done joyfully.

“Every day I appreciate things about it; some big things (the huge windows letting in views of the woods), some little things (a lovely detail where two walls meet). The longer we live here, the better we like it.”

People's desire for more senstivity in restaurants and hospitality reflects the complexity of rapid change in our world. Animate's successful designs allow people to attend to their endeavours.
