What does it really take to launch your own design firm" Writer Kevan Williams spent a long time answering this question for ?Start Your Engines??about a year and half all told. With so much reporting, what got left out was nearly as interesting as what made it in. We sent out questionnaires to about two dozen firms and got some very provocative (and moving) responses back. Though we could only use an extract in the print version, there?s always room for more online.

How long had you been working professionally when you decided to launch your firm"
I had been working for 18 years at both small and large multidisciplinary firms.
What was the deciding factor"
What drove me to start my firm was a strong belief that I could create a business that allows people to grow professionally, meet the needs of clients, and execute projects to the highest standards.
Finding a healthy life?work balance was a strong underlying goal.
DMLA?s culture is rooted in the understanding that people are able to do their best work when they have the time and flexibility to meet the needs...
