Why Katapult

Some problems do not belong to a discipline.

They require disciplines to move together before the answer is known.

The Collective

Built around the work.

Each engagement brings together only the people, perspectives, and disciplines the problem requires.

Strategy Identity Architecture Storytelling Technology Design Experience Sport Culture Development Craft

Human Authorship

Made by people.

Nothing Katapult puts into the world is generated by artificial intelligence. Every idea, image, word, and decision is made and judged by people—shaped by experience, taste, judgment, and care.

Something of the people who make the work should remain in the work.

How We Work

Provenance

Independent by design.

Founded by Ray Morales in 1979, Katapult carries forward a design philosophy of clarity, restraint, and care.

Its work has crossed brands, institutions, sport, entertainment, technology, media, products, and the built environment.

The collective works primarily through longstanding relationships and direct introductions.

Good work usually begins with a conversation that wasn’t on the calendar.
