Just like a music or art studio, Health+ Studio at its core is a space to push our collective thinking, validate hunches, examine actions, and bolster creative confidence.

 

Our values define how we think and work:

  • Be a thought partner: The creative energy in our work comes from partnership, not ownership. We want to build with our clients, not for them. We believe that divergent points of views are the spark that light new ideas.

  • Move with humility: We recognize that we don’t always have the answers and others may know more than us. We embrace listening, observing and growing with others and celebrate being a part of something bigger. 

  • Stay curious: Our curiosity is driven by our desire to learn. We turn things over and see what’s underneath. We want to understand what’s working and what’s not working so we can do better the next time. 

  • Create to delight: We aspire to captivate people’s attention and imagination. We strive to build things intentionally that appeal to people’s senses and make people stop, think, and do something.

  • Lift up the good: We recognize and celebrate what’s good and working—no matter how big or small. We believe that our work evolves from the good work of others and, in turn, feel a responsibility to do our part in putting good work back into the world.

  • Stay optimistic:  Optimism is our engine for action, keeping us motivated, open minded, and focused on solutions. We believe that optimism is contagious and has the power to bring us together to create a better and more just world.

 

Health+ Studio is a nimble group that includes social strategists, program managers, visual designers, creative writers, communications and subject matter experts aligned under a common commitment and vision. The value is a project team comprised of diverse expertise and perspectives that come together to develop solutions that are most likely to have the greatest impact

We started Health+ Studio with the vision to bring together the creative energy of a design firm, the behavior change skills of a marketing agency, and scientific rigor of public health, with the core belief that we all need to roll up our sleeves to make health possible for all.
