THE DRAWING BOARD.
Ideas, insights, and the occasional napkin sketch.
Welcome to the ANCORD blog, where we share what we’re learning, building, testing — and occasionally ranting about. You’ll find project case studies, behind-the-scenes process breakdowns, and honest thoughts on what it really takes to design products that last.
We talk sustainability, materials, design strategy, and how to stay creative when budgets, timelines, or supply chains get weird.
It’s not about trend-chasing. It’s about sharing what works, what doesn’t, and how we keep showing up with purpose.
