PebbleDesign
Playful, powerful tools
that amplify imagination
and intellect.
We originate our own products — Earth: A Primer, Atomical — and take on a handful of engagements a year, framing and scoping the work. Design, engineering, research, and strategy are an integrated practice — distilled in a prototype, at full force leading a cross-disciplinary team.
Our work spans learning, science, health, regenerative design, games, and creative tools — increasingly AI-native. Clients have ranged from early-stage startups to Valve, Linden Lab, and UCSF.
