90-minute design consultation

$450 Virtual / $550 in-person (Los Angeles)

90-Minute Consultations are yours to get answers, knowledge and momentum quickly for your project. Our seasoned principle designer, Krister Lile, will answer as many questions as possible in the 90 minutes, share relevant tips, insights, resources and game-plan suggestions.

In addition to answering your questions and providing valuable guidance, Krister will also give you a framework for design thinking, and actually teach you how to think through many of the your questions to get to those answers. So when your consultation concludes, not only will you have actionable answers, you will better know how to get to them yourself, next time, on your own.
