Our Story
The Coincide collection is born from the idea that every object should be an instrument of learning, both for the creator and the collector. The products are evidence of a process that merges the questions of an artist and the solutions of a designer.
Make better, not more: Timeless themes are carefully researched, interpreted and expressed as original works meant to be carried for a lifetime and inspire for generations.
We strive to carve a niche at the coincident of art and design, applying complementary methods in the same place at the same time.
These fundamental and core beliefs were formed during decades of work and research within art, design, and teaching. From rugged architectural work in the wilderness of Canada's Ontario and the dense metropolitan sprawl of Los Angeles to the more gentle activity of Plein-air watercolours, each individual task, however small, helped crystalize these tenets.
The synthesis of these goals, combined with the philosophy that well-made objects are part of a sustainable path, shapes the approach we take.
Aware of the resources consumed in the creation of any object, each product has been carefully analyzed and must share three main attributes;
-
it has to be collectible,
-
it has to encourage learning, and
-
it has to continue to do the first two for generations.
