THE

At Knot Studio, we spend a lot of time crafting, creating, thinking, and talking - always with the cultural landscape at the forefront of what we do. Whether with our clients, collaborators or within our walls, it’s a constant conversation.

The Grain is our new dispatch from the studio - a space where we join the dots and share the threads shaping what we see, feel, and create.

Why Grain? Because like the natural grain in wood, it tells a story - a unique pattern of growth, change, and character.

Get the Grain? You will.
