- Phase 2: Design - Creating concepts derived from the chosen theme for the space. These are called idea cards, they are loose, sketchy and conceptual. The chosen ideas are then refined further.
- Phase 3: Develop - Developing the chosen ideas, considering materiality and creating fully formed designs ready to be artworked, fabricated and installed.
