About

AKD offers design services including design consultancy, bespoke design and research.

We specialise in developing end-use parts and products made using digital fabrication, to unlock benefits like distributed production and mass customisation.

We also develop eco-design products and furniture that support repairability, circularity and mass customisation.

Our planet needs an alternative approach to how we make our material world. We are committed to exploring sustainable models for the conception, production and consumption of design that solve your design challenges with fresh thinking and balance with nature.

By working with people, for people and locally to people, we can make the things everybody needs more sustainably and inclusively. We do this by working distributively, harnessing the power of technologies like 3D printing and empowering communities to engage in the process of making and repairing their products.
