HTCL, which stands for How Things Could Look, is an industrial design co-operative that specializes in producing new forms for old ideas. Our goal is to rethink the appearance of everyday objects in order to make them more ecologically safe, more cost effective and more fun, whilst not compromising their functionality or beauty. Where possible we make the items in-house from recycled or pre-used materials. Our work encompasses product design, graphic design, architecture and electronic design.

 

Please contact us to find out how we can work together to change design for the better.
