Our Approach

Every project is different, and that's exactly how we like it. We work closely with our clients to uncover the story you're hoping to tell, and then bring it to life through thoughtful design, clear communication, and a process that keeps you involved every step of the way.

​We begin by getting to know your goals, your audience, and the story you want to share. When possible, we love to meet on site to  see the space and connect in person.

1. Listen & Learn

2. Co-Create a Vision

We’ll collaborate on the best way to bring your story forward, whether it be through signs, illustrations, exhibits, or something entirely new. You bring the insight, we bring the ideas!

3. Make a Plan

Once we’ve gathered the pieces, we’ll lay out a clear project plan. This includes what we’re making, how it will look, and how it all fits together.

4. Design in Motion

We roll up our sleeves and get to work. At key points, we’ll share drafts so you can provide input throughout the process.

6. Build and Install (if needed)

We can coordinate fabrication and installation with our trusted partners, seeing the project through right until the end.

5. Final Touches

Once you’ve approved the design, we prepare the final files and make sure everything is ready for fabrication  or handoff.

Walking with Gratitude and Intent

At Fenwood Creative, our work is rooted in place. We share stories of the land across Turtle Island (North America). We honour the deep knowledge and enduring relationships that Indigenous communities hold with the land, water, and all living things. Their stories are inseparable from the places we interpret, and we are committed to uplifting Indigenous voices and centering them in our work. 

​

We are grateful to live, work, play, and raise our families on Treaty 6 Territory (the traditional and current lands of the Cree, Saultaux, Nakota, Sioux, and Dene), the Métis Nation of Alberta Region 4, and the unceded traditional territory of the Ktunaxa Nation. We commit to listening, learning, and walking alongside Indigenous Peoples with respect and humility.
