About us.

At our core, we are a team of passionate Apple technology experts dedicated to empowering creative professionals like you.

We specialize in providing comprehensive hardware and software management solutions tailored to the unique needs of those working in creative fields.

Our deep expertise in Building Information Modeling (BIM) sets us apart.

We understand the intricate workflows and software tools essential to your success.

We're direct ...

We believe in direct, eye-to-eye communication.

If the answer can be summarised in one word then, no matter who you are, we will not write an essay in reply.

... we're independent ...

We give you our unbiased and straight-up advice.

We don’t sell you hardware or software for profit.

We don’t expect you to sign a lock-in contract with a big retainer.

... and it's personal.

We are Daniel, Alex, Andrew, Martin, Kevin and Tim.

One of us will be your point of contact, the rest of us are there for support.

No automated replies, no lodging of tickets, just us.

Why us?

With our background in your design industry, we take pride in our ability to communicate with you and your team without a translator.

We watch, we listen, and we work with you to establish a strategy specifically tailored to the needs of your company. 

Our clients range from sole practitioners to companies with over 130 staff.

Our goal is to be the Design Technology Managers you wish you had years ago.

Meet the team

We’ve worked with and taught at various universities, and worked for leading architectural and interior design firms. 

We know what a deadline tastes like, have felt the dread of that spinning wheel
and have first-hand experience of the ad-hoc nature of BIM and IT in growing firms.
