Our story
We support our clients all over the world out of our two design agencies in two European cities that are icons for creativity — Paris and Antwerp — and our commercial presence in Bangkok, at the heart of Asia.
Our story begins in 1976 when IDEA (Industrial Design Enthoven Axel) was founded by the designer Axel Enthoven. In 1989, the business took on the form of a design agency and changed its name to become Enthoven Associates Design Consultants.
In 2001, Enthoven Associates merged with Yellow Window Management Consultants to extend its spectrum of activities to services to aid decision-making. This development made us what we are today — a truly multidisciplinary agency.
In 2007, the French agency was set up under the Yellow Window brand.
In 2013, Yellow Window became our common name and sole identity for all our product, service and public policy design activities throughout the world.
Our expertise
We support private and public actors to optimize, differentiate and innovate their products and services.
Our approach is to always place users and their experience at the centre of all projects by mobilizing methods bringing together observation, participation, analysis and creativity.
Our contribution is a unique expertise, combining our skills in policy design and service design with our capacity to develop specific operational solutions leveraging on a broad range of design disciplines: transport design, product design, spatial design, information design and digital design.
Our commitment is to provide eco-efficient solutions, working towards controlled budgets for roll out or industrial production.
Our team
Our team consists of women and men with different cultures from different walks of life.
Its members bring together a spectrum of know-how, expertise and experiences blending creativity, technical skill, economics and social and political sciences.
Our capacity to work in different countries draws on the language skills of our employees, who can express themselves in eight official EU languages (English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Czech), as well as Chinese, Korean and Russian.
We particularly value the potential of each member of our team and we encourage mutual learning by mixing different profiles on each project.
It is the multidisciplinary nature of these talented people; their curiosity, their desire to discover new knowledge or ways of doing things, and their creativity in seeking solutions suitable for each specific client or context that make our services excellent.
