Why Story 2?
We exist to center people, communities, and organizations that relentlessly pursue life, love, and justice.
Story 2 Designs is a response to what we call story one. The story one narrative is what many of us work against every single day. It manifests as fossil fuel energies and colonialism. It’s false and forced dichotomies, rigid ideologies, and single solutions that are not healthy or sustainable.
So what comes after story one? We think you already have the answer. You, and many others who are already doing the work, embodying your values, all while existing and resisting.
Today we have the choice to chase what is living, what is growing, and what is emerging — this is what we call Story 2. The Story 2 arc embraces complexity and the unknown. It is holistic, generative, open, and abundant like a thriving garden filled with your favorite fruits and veggies.
We believe in creating and re-imagining our present, we can create our future. We believe in Story 2.
