We focus in every relationship on the creation of solutions that are as unique as the challenges faced by our clients.

We are not interested in solutions that impress our colleagues, or earn us awards, but are completely unsuitable for a working environment.

We are only interested in ensuring that every solution, will work in your environment, and more importantly will work after we have left.

An Explanatory Tale

Aesop’s story of the Stag who looked in to the water shows the importance of valuing things that work rather than just look good.

The Stag was drinking water from the lake when he saw an image of himself reflected in the water as clear as if he had been looking in a mirror.

He was impressed by how beautiful he looked, particularly his antlers, which he thought gave him a very majestic appearance, Oh! He thought to himself if only the rest of my body was as majestic looking as my antlers. His legs he thought looked so thin, just hanging underneath him, so spindly and weak looking.

Just then he was shaken from his thoughts by the sound of a hunt. He bounded swiftly away on his spindly legs. Getting tired he turned into the wood so that he could recover some energy. As he entered the wood his antlers got caught in the thin lower branches of the trees and trapped him.

The hunt quickly caught up with the Stag who was unable to escape either the twigs or the hounds.

As he was dying, he said to himself, “Now I see the antlers of which I was so proud are the cause of my death, whilst the legs I was so unhappy with could have been my salvation”

The Stag learnt to late that it is better to focus on the benefits things offered by things we dislike, rather than the image that can be created by adornment.
