About Thingking Studio:
Thingking is a designer-maker consultancy based in Cape Town which focuses on project-based industrial design, often incorporating technology. Working with leading brands both locally and abroad, its members aim for all of their work to be playful, fun and interactive.

About The Maak:
The Maak is an award-winning spatial practice based in Cape Town, South Africa. The founders, Ashleigh Killa and Max Mevill, are deeply engaged with what it means to be public and how this influences the everyday. Fittingly, they have chosen to focus their architectural agenda on public buildings and ‘public space making’. It is in this arena that they feel their expertise and interests can manifest with the largest possible positive social impact.

About David Brits:
David Brits is a sculptor based in Cape Town. Born in 1987, Brits graduated from the Michaelis School of Fine Art (Painting) at the University of Cape Town in 2010. He has, over the past three years, devoted his practice solely to formal investigations in public-scale sculpture. Recent major public sculpture commissions include the Desmond Tutu HIV Foundation, The Spier Arts Trust and the Iziko South African National Gallery. He is winner of the Rupert Foundation’s inaugural Social Impact Arts Prize.
