The Lab
Chris runs a design studio and think tank in Brooklyn. We develop ideas into visualizations and objects to think with. We are interested in future thinking R&D projects and we have the right environment and network to develop and build exceptional software/hardware prototypes. We are located near the Brooklyn Academy of Music. The Nevins St. subway (2,3,4,5) is steps from our door. The sign on the front of our building reads "Metropolitan Exchange Bank".
Chris studied Design Interactions at the Royal College of Art in London, did a post grad research fellowship with Natalie Jeremijenko at the NYU and worked on research projects for the Living Architecture Lab at Columbia GSAPP. He has worked as an Interaction Designer for Adobe and IDEO. He has been a visiting critic at design schools including Columbia, SVA, NYU, Pratt and MIT. His work has been shown at the MoMA in New York, Science Gallery in Dublin and the IVAM in Valencia.
