THE ORIGIN OF Arocordis Design
Developing our name took time. Rather than tie our business to a person we sought a name
which resonates with a sense of purpose and our values.
Our search led us to see we could use latin word roots together to create a name which
connected to us.
After a while we found what we were looking for. aro; a latin verb meaning to cultivate,
plow, sow and to till. We also found cordis; a latin noun meaning heart; mind/soul/spirit;
aro+cordis = Arocordis Design, meaning cultivating the heart and soul of design.
Our name is who we are; creative, collaborative, earthy and insightful. We cultivate rich
sustainably focused design solutions borne from what matters most to your family,
community or organization.
What we create together will connect not only to this generation but seek to create
lasting enjoyment, meaning and value for generations to come.CONTACT OR COLLABORATE WITH US
