What We Do
Creative projects shaped by the people they represent
Professionally delivered murals that transform spaces, celebrate local identity and build long-term community pride.
Accessible, inclusive workshops that help people share ideas, develop creative skills and meaningfully shape the finished artwork.
Distinctive site-specific artwork that improves public environments, supports social-value commitments and positively involves local communities.
"Not only has the art outwardly brightened our community, but this project has created an opportunity for all generations to get together."
Falone Bulsa, local resident and project participant, Teviot Estate
Our Process
1
Listening &
Gathering Stories
Through workshops and conversations, we invite local people to share their stories, ideas and memories. Everyone is welcome, and no artistic experience is needed.
2
Co-Creating
the Design
Our artists bring community ideas and stories together in a cohesive design. We share drafts, gather feedback, and refine the mural so it really reflects local identity.
3
Bringing it
to Life
From community painting sessions to unveiling celebrations, we bring the artwork to life together. The result is more than a mural. It's a lasting symbol of pride, belonging and unity.

What Our Clients Say
"We commissioned Rose to carry out co-design workshops with the local community to the regeneration project we are currently working on and to create a mural as the end result. It was great to work with Rose, she took on board our vision and aims of the project and created a programme to suit whilst being flexible along the way with natural changes that occurred. Rose was amazing at working with the local residents, very approachable and created a warm and friendly atmosphere that everyone felt comfortable in."
Kelly Player,
Social Value Manager,
The Hill Group
“The process of working with the local residents in creating something that represented their diversity and richness of Carpenters and Newham as a whole has been amazing. So too, was hearing the individual stories of residents and that being reflected in the design of the mural. Really glad to see this amazing culmination of creativity take centre stage on Carpenters Road and enliven what is a great neighbourhood.”
