Meet the team: Matt

We are excited to welcome Matt, an environment and industrial designer with added expertise in multimedia, to the team.

If I was a piece of furniture I would be… a swing, because I’m always up for adventure if someone is willing to join me. Is a swing a piece of furniture? I have been known to become one with the couch on Sunday after a long week though.

When I was a kid I…thought that I would live in a castle one day. This dream has yet to be realized.

If I wasn’t here I’d be… On a twelve mile run in the Rockies up to the riverhead of the Colorado River.

My favorite place in the world is… Ponquogue Beach in New York. I’m not able to get there as much as I used to but I still get that childhood sense of anticipation as the Atlantic Ocean comes into view from the top of the Ponquogue bridge.

I want to redesign… Most commercial corridors I encounter, Beechmont Avenue in Cincinnati and McKnight Road in Pittsburgh come to mind. They are confusing, dangerous and intimidating to motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians and they could use some help aesthetically as well.

What is the aroma of adventure?
