Hathaway Designs

Hathaway Designs designs meeting spaces for voices and productions that are not always heard or acknowledged by the mainstream but are vital for the development of resilient communities. The productions of Hathaway Designs are working prototypes placed in a context to collect qualitative data, highlight local resources (human, natural and animal),... and kick start self-organization. The prototypes (whether it be a sweatershop, a corn field or a miniature train track), are built in collaboration with local inhabitants, and upon shared values. Hathaway's designs create open, public spaces for interaction, production and debate, and a new sense of citizenry in places of disconnection. The "#1" website is still active and available to look at by seeing the "Archive" section in the left list of sections. Although still concentrating on product design, the Hathaway Designs portfolio is expanding to include larger scale designs in which objects serve an important role, but are not always singular stand-alone entities. They reflect and support a bigger design.Read More
