Our Story
The Kea Resilience Project is a business that is just as much a creative experiment in life.
Born by Tenacity, Opportunism & Perseverance we are driven towards solutions. Amongst the challenges and limitations of practical life our mission is to retain the magical and aesthetic brilliance within our work. It is through our experiences in creative problem solving that we develop greater capacities of mind, body and spirit. Being committed to this approach in our own lives we take great pleasure in applying it to the success of our clients projects.
From our Co-Founder and Builder Lachlan Grey:
A friend once said to me "everything is art." All our work is guided by Magical proportions, Simple properties, Reliable elements and a Minimalist approach.
It is less of "what we do" but rather "how do we do it?"
My journey with my work is vast, unending and asking consistently for me to be the most awake and creative version of myself I can be. I bring this invitation of presence not only to my practical work but in all of life.
We are as passionate about our products as we are about our unique services and how we provide them. Reach out to learn more.
