About

Something & Son is a design practice rooted in a long history of British inquisitiveness and experimentation, applied to the creation of a more sustainable world.

Our work reflects our varied backgrounds and shared passion for social enterprise, the environment, engineering and art.

We like to create popular, provocative and witty work that tackles the big design and social challenges of our time.

A keenness to collaborate has led us to work alongside swift experts, mushroom men, scrapyard merchants, farmers, scientists and sociologists.
