AOL. Facebook. Yelp. StubHub. eBay. Most recently, the up-and-coming Square. Studio O+A‘s client list reads like a who’s who of Silicon Valley.
Last week we had the chance to chat with Director of Design Denise Cherry, who revealed the dream client still missing from the list (hint: they’re trying not to be evil), among other secrets of an innovation architect (for example, most of the “workers” in these photos are O+A employees). Much like the superstar tech clients she works with, Cherry is a youngster: she started as an intern at Studio O+A in 2005, working her way up the ladder with remarkable speed. Click through for Our interview, plus exclusive images of their newest project.
