Undesigning the Redline

We partnered with The Diatribe and The 49507 Project to interactively tell the little-known story of redlining in Grand Rapids. The experience visualizes the significance of redlining through immersive video and 3D content while highlighting local artists who live, work, and create in the 49507.

Plaza Roosevelt

We created The Plaza Roosevelt app in partnership with the Neighbors of Roosevelt Park and Habitat for Humanity. The app uses Augmented Reality (AR) and 360 photos to allow people in the Roosevelt Park neighborhood, and the surrounding community, to view the construction developments in their area.

YWCA

At the beginning of the pandemic, we partnered with the YWCA to build a chatbot that provided support to people isolated by COVID. We provided training and support to the YWCA team as they added this new resource to their site.

Non-Traditional Education

We partner with organizations to provide real-world educational experiences for their students to gain opportunities for professional development in technology.

Diversity and Inclusivity

Different perspectives are a powerful force for positive change. We bring a variety of backgrounds, histories, and points of view to every relationship—offering our clients and partners a wider range of ideas and options as a result.
