We are ALIVE.

We work hard, question the status quo, create beauty, embolden the curious and try and inspire a better world through our storytelling and experiences. We tell the stories of the educator who came up with an innovative technique, an artist whose installation sparked a conversation about equality and the maker who locally sources the wood for his sustainable furniture. We like minimal, modern design and in-depth, thought provoking interviews. We live in a loft in the heart of the city and spend holidays at the family farm. We spend our weekend going to art museums, watching live music and attending a dinner pop up series with a James Beard chef. We love designing a life with beautiful things and experiences that will inspire us as we fulfill our mission to make the world a better place. We are artists, entrepreneurs, creatives, activists, curators and influencers.

We are the new middle of America.
