Meet Some of Our Makers

We Blend Science & Alchemy

We’re not exactly “scientists” (though, we have a few of those), nor are we “magicians” (though we have those, too). We’re a wild, creative, diverse group of people who mix the fundamentals of design—research, prototyping, testing—with our combined capabilities, personalities, and passions to make inspiring futures.

Who We Are

We Are Makers

Since IDEO’s inception, we’ve been makin’, from physical items, like toys and chairs, to digital products, like restaurant management platforms and mental wellness apps. But making isn’t a singular phase of our work, nor is it reserved just for people in the shop. Making is a critical part of every IDEOer’s role, whether they’re more comfortable with hammers or spreadsheets, coding or cooking.

We Span the Globe

Our work takes us everywhere but we have six hubs we call home: San Francisco, Chicago, Cambridge, London, and Shanghai. And number six is less a place than a playground: the Play Lab, which takes on actual toy design, and leverages play to make everything from work to taking your medicine more effective and joyful. We’re also continuing to grow our work in South East Asia, where a few of our colleagues reside.
