About
We are Kin. Our work is about people, the spaces between them and their connections to the world around them.

Kin was founded in 2008 by Kevin Palmer and Matt Wade. Between us we have over 20 years experience in the Design Industry, working at the highest level of Europe's most respected Design Companies. Previous to Kin, Kevin was Creative Director of digital communications at Imagination – Europe's largest and most successful independent design company, and Matt was design director of Moving Brands. We founded Kin with the belief that there is opportunity to develop smaller more agile approach to Art Direction and Interaction Design, working at both a strategic and solutions level.

Over the last year, we have created interactive retail experiences for Tommy Hilfiger and Barclays Flagship Piccadilly; designed and installed interactive installations for IBM and the Fragmented Orchestra; created films for Diesel and Kylie Minogue; written research papers for Nokia; taught at Goldsmiths, and the Dublin Institute of Technology & Design; featured in 2 books, the Design Press, and The Guardian; and set up 100 balloons with LED lights in the Canadian Forest for a photoshoot.


...are exploring the relationship  
between people, things and the  
spaces around them.
