Questions, conversations and go.

STORY-BASED BRAND DEVELOPMENT FOR NON-PROFITS, PASSION PROJECTS & GREAT CAUSES.

Say Hello!

Find joy in collaboration.

For those working for a cause, there aren’t enough hours in the day. It’s easy to trade hours of self-care and socializing for time in front of a work screen. The upside of always being connected to your work is that you have more opportunities to find connections in the work that you do.
 
You learn to find moments of joy in the hours spent working. Zoom meetings can be a wonderful opportunity to share and listen. Work chats can sometimes become after-hours group chats.
 
These conversations are key to the work that we do. We want an on-camera, sit-down interview to feel like sitting down with a friend over coffee. We think design meetings should be about sharing ideas and maybe the occasional dinner recipe.
 
We want our collaboration to be fun and essential. Above all, we want to support the great work of non-profits and entrepreneurs working for a cause.

Tapestry 101

Observations and insights from a thousand interviews

We've done a lot of interviews over the years.

Short-form documentaries have led to a lot of long-form conversations. We’ve interviewed all across the professional, political and personal spectrum. 


We’ve learned that sharing stories is a universal love. There is joy in the fact-finding that comes from conversations.

We learned that most everyone seeks purpose in the work that they do.

We’ve interviewed doctors and lawyers; inmates and officers. We’ve talked shop with all manner of professionals. Nearly everyone finds purpose in their profession.


Hearing someone talk about the work they is fascinating and relatable. Knowing the reasons why makes all of the difference. 

We've learned that these stories are what matter most to those that support you.

Great causes deserve great stories. Our work is about refining these stories, then sharing them with the people that move your work forward. 

There are limitless possibilities in this space.

Every cause has a different set of circumstances, communication needs and storytelling capacity. A strong story leads to excellent work. 

How we tell it together is where the fun begins!
