A story

A small number of clients. Introductions made by hand.

Two people who hated apps

Engaged, eighteen months on · New York

A publisher and an architect, introduced on the basis of almost nothing they had in common on paper — and everything they had in common in the way they talked about their work.

Isabelle described the introduction as a hunch. It was the sixth she had made that year and the only one she has ever put in a note to herself in advance.

The fourth introduction

Together three years

The first three were wrong, and each one was wrong usefully.

  • Across two continents

    Married, and relocated twice

  • The one we asked to wait

    Four years, and he has since sent us two friends
