At Intersect, we love to inspire people! We understand happiness and human behavior. By reading, studying, watching, talking and dreaming we’ve discovered what influences how people feel in the places they live and work. Happy people perform better, are healthier, and are more engaged. At our core, we understand that designing for your organization’s mission is the key to the success of your space.
Design has the power to
transform and propel teams
We design…
Design can propel your mission. Because we know that design can propel your mission, our focus on rallying your people around your mission will drive your mission in the right direction. The key to our success is not only our ability to clearly define the problem to be solved. But to also help you navigate the endless possibilities to find exactly what is right for you. We help you make decisions with good data, options, research, trends, and projections. We strive to win, not just finish. Doing something is easy, but at the end of the day, the experience of doing is key. We love to see people do what they do better—happier. We are inspired and look for opportunities to inspire others in our communities and in our workplaces.
