Design studio · The other reading

&otherwise

Every brief has an obvious answer.
We make the other one.

Idea

The ampersand is a promise: there is always another way to read this.

&otherwise begins where the brief ends. Most studios answer the question as asked. We answer it, then turn it over — and hand back the version nobody defaulted to. Clearer. Stranger. Right.

Not different for the sake of it. Different because the obvious answer was only ever the first one. The “&” is the half you add: the studio is the connector, never the whole sentence. You & Otherwise.
