we are a Design Innovation consultancy with a passion for helping you future-proof your organisation, its business model and activities















Rapid Design Intervention facilitated by Justine in Chania, Crete (Greece). September 2019.


Design Innovation is the practice of creating opportunities using the tools and methods of a designer.
When we apply the design mindset to a business challenge, we unlock transformative perspectives that traditional methods struggle to achieve.
As a result and through the services we offer, The Blooming Platypus helps organisations to:
-
Co-create powerful solutions that stay relevant, and stand the tests of time,
-
Stay ahead of your competition by responding proactively to opportunities,
-
Innovate economically by streamlining your activities and staying solution-focused.

Why we’re different

Our background
Our methods are underpinned by the latest research and designed by our in-house team of practitioner-researchers, all of whom are working academics who actively curate and publish studies about Design Innovation.

Our style
We are on a mission to breathe fun, colour and creativity back into the world of innovation. If we’re going to change the world for the better, let’s do it with joy!

Our philosophy
The Platypus Philosophy is our binding ethos that defines how we work, and why we work as we do. We are committed to providing services with integrity so our clients, too, can experience the best of Design Innovation.
