His core proficiency is in using design thinking to map out unseen opportunities and emerging trends in order to develop the desired outcomes.
Henry believes the richness of solutions evolves from a combination of an
honest and open collaborative process and rigorous execution.
Always
the curious collaborator in search of challenging ways of thinking,
Henry has worked with Bruce Mau Design, Office for Metropolitan

At Torch we think differently about the purpose and value of design. By treating business problems as problems of design we are able to develop a richer point of view on the problem itself. This creates a deeper understanding of the problem's dynamics, and leads to a diversity of unique insights to the problem, its causes and its effects. Our greatest ambition as designers is to improve the businesses we serve. We focus our attention on creating alignment between your organization's strategy and it's design for creating value: from structure to processes, communications and core capabilities.
