Consistent recognition for its design work sets the company apart from competitors in the Boston market, which Maren says they are incredibly proud of, while acknowledging other differentiators:“ Beyond the awards, I think it’ s our tried-and-tested predictable process that really defines us. We’ re known for it and we’ re very disciplined about it. It’ s service-oriented where building lasting relationships grounded in creativity and care is paramount. We generate about 60 percent of our work from referrals or repeat business, which we think speaks for itself.
“ Additionally, being an employeeowned business has been genuinely transformational,” Maren continues.“ We weave it through every company meeting and it has become prominent in all of our branding and messaging. It builds culture, supports retention, and generates real energy, as people are excited to be part of something they have a stake in. When employees directly benefit from the company’ s performance and growth, this ownership brings with it a source of belonging, pride, and camaraderie. It’ s the very foundation of who we are.”
