Even before we had language that was verbal, it was visual. - Sneha

It's one of the oldest human organisational frameworks that we've created to be in touch with ourselves, but also with each other. - Sneha

How can we actually create spaces that respond to the people that are actually working there. - Sneha

Being surrounded by art sometimes creates the same kind of effect as being in nature, because at the end of the day, it's human touch. - Sneha

The values are the consistent piece, but the display of those values can vary. - Caleb

Since the day we were founded our hashtags have been  #noNakedWalls and #wechampionartists. - Sneha

DeltaQ improves comfort while maximising energy and CO2 savings and allows operational teams to turn their attention to added value work instead of repetitive tasks and constant finetuning.

When deployed over a large volume of buildings, DeltaQ will deliver an important contribution to realising the world’s ambition in the fight against climate change.
