Space design shouldn't be one-dimensional, because people aren't. People have different needs at different times depending on their mood or context. Just as in a person's home, spaces need to be zonal, defined by activity, reflecting different states.
Story-led
The design narratives of objects tell the story of a space and reflect the values of the people using it. Stories provide the opportunities to mobilise all aspects of our approach, and encourage positive behaviour change. Embedded in TILT’s work, for example, is a conscious approach to sourcing, utilising pioneering materials to create designs that minimise their impact on the environment.

Connecting
Access to knowledge comes through connecting with other people. This is particularly important in working and learning environments. Furniture and space design plays a massive role in determining how people behave and can have a hugely positive effect on encouraging collaboration.
Adaptive
In cities, space is at a premium, yet people’s demands from space are ever increasing. We need to provide more with less. The solution is to re-imagine space and furniture and abandon the idea that they have a fixed function e.g. a writeable whiteboard that becomes a breakfast bar, or a table that becomes a speaking platform.

Transformative
Space should inspire those who use it, energising people to make better. Good design opens up the potential of a space, the objects and furniture within it, transforming people´s experiences and improving well-being.
Participative
Spaces should emanate from and be orientated around the people that use them, involving users in all stages of the design and make of a space. TILT utilises tools like design workshops and ‘make days’ to encourage user involvement and affinity with a space.
