Burlix Studio helps people and businesses express their values through memorable experiences and spaces. The studio is a creative consultancy focused on projects that address culture, learning and health and wellness. The Burlix collaborators use a generative process that includes design strategies such as service design thinking and workshop facilitation to create open and collaborative design processes and tangible solutions. Expertise in architecture, theater and interior design provide a deep understanding of people, space and experience that enriches each Burlix engagement.
Burlix Studio is also heavily involved in design curriculum development and teaching design courses, with a special interest in getting students to work outside their own discipline, skill set, and/or comfort zone. Often these design studios and workshops focus on tools, methods and strategies for design thinking across various disciplines, including architecture, business management and product design. Elements such as visual communication, information design, human centered design and service design thinking introduce new frameworks for working and collaborating. The students also learn to apply methods of storytelling to a broad spectrum of visualization and information graphic techniques that culminate into projects that often bring awareness to relevant social issues. These courses explore curriculum innovations that use social networking platforms, community partnerships, and student blogging.
