Designing services that work.

You probably don’t know that you need a service designer.

But if you serve a user, customer, client or patron in some way, you do.

A bit about me

My name is Douglas. I’ve been designing things and services since 2004. With a stronger focus on sustainability since 2008.

I’ve worn many hats. But the one with two sides; ‘service designer’ and ‘sustainability’ is the one that’s most well-worn.

What I do

I help organisations design and deliver services that work by:

  1. Fixing existing services
  2. Creating new services
  3. Thinking through possible consequences
  4. Moderating creativity and decision-making workshops
  5. Talking about design and sustainability

How I work

It’s simple and adult:

  1. We meet and talk.
  2. We agree on a first step, which we then take together.
  3. We keep going. Or not.
