We exist to inspire people to think about objects and spaces more deeply by witnessing the beauty that comes from designing and consuming with care for people + planet. Through conversations, learnings and explorations we have developed a series of guiding values to shape Invisible Matter’s future to become — a place to discover, learn empower, grow and inspire a better way forward collectively.
1. End Product > Slow Design
Objects that hero impeccable craftsmanship, built for the ages with wellbeing front and centre — uplifting the beauty of the design process while inspiring a slower velocity of engagement and reflection.
2. Fairtrade > Direct Trade
Objects that go beyond fairtrade to support, train and empower artisans and their communities to flourish.
3. Product > Matter
Objects that respect their materiality and interconnectedness, seeking to preserve earth’s most basic elements, while also transforming these elements to form entirely new materials with care.
4. Single-use > Multi-use
Objects that are endurable, made to the last the tests of time — easily adapting to growth, style, trends, gender, activity and purpose.
5. Product Life > Afterlife
Objects that last longer and are designed with the end in mind.
