Ignite is a design co-op brought together by our commitment to using our Design superpowers to honor and build communities.

Prioritization Matrix based on Impact and Mission Alignment

We’re committed to the communities we serve.

We think that good design is a balancing act of aligning the needs of the communities it’s impacting, and its stakeholders.

We learn, empathize, and advocate for members of the community who will be affected by our project and intentionally make design choices based on their needs.

We are designers, strategists, educators, researchers, activists, and community builders.

Our Design Superpowers

Our diverse backgrounds enable us to come in as solutions-agnostic strategists from the beginning of projects. During the design process, we converge and enable each other’s design expertise to transform our strategy into a seamlessly executed program, product, experience, or service.
