MARC O’BRIEN
Fractional Strategic Designer & Creative Director

Building new industries and social movements for a just transition

Since 2016, I’ve been determined to make climate work look good, sound awesome, be seen, and get needed support.

Business, Climate, Design

FEATURED PROJECT

Maybe it's possible to organize designers into the most powerful force for climate action in the creative economy

What if designers leveraged their influence over culture and consumption to drive massive behavioral change?

BRAND
BUILDING

Amplifying nascent climate industries to become widespread and adopted

The important climate work is just on the horizon

EVs, solar, wind are already here. I look the other way, building brands focused on regenerative solutions and approaches so that people fund, work for, and support these efforts.

COLLECTIVE
ACTION

Helping organizations rally their people to build a regenerative future

Systems change along with culture and paradigm shifts are key to creating a thriving world

We need a level of movement building never seen before, which has the potential of opening up our collective consciences to reveal our interconnectedness to nature, each other, and ourselves.

DESIGN STUDIO PARTNERSHIP

Supporting designers to put climate at the core of their work

A designer’s skills are needed by frontline climate entrepreneurs, advocates, and activists

I help design studios become aware of the power and responsibility they have in making climate-forward design decisions.

Accelerating climate action through
strategic design and creative direction
