We do & Support co-design in the built environmenT.
We work at the intersection of the built environment and social, health and housing services, supporting organisations and design teams to centre cultural knowledge and lived experiences in design projects.
At Home Language, we focus on:
Moving gently, at the speed required for the folks we work with and the project itself.
Creating spaces for knowledge sharing and collective learning.
Developing project-specific, grounded understandings, and responsive and inclusive ways to move forward.
Services
We see and understand the world as a highly connected web of interacting threads or complex systems; no one person, community or project exists in isolation, and no two projects and contexts are the same. There are many connected aspects of our work, and the lines between categories can be fuzzy.
If you’re unsure where your need or project might fit, please contact us; we’re always happy to chat.
