Project brief

The Lay of the Land.

1.1

Where TCS stands.

TCS was founded in British Columbia, Canada, in 2023 after our creative co-founder (Rora) and business co-founder (Aayush) teamed up to win a series of hackathons. They quickly realized that clear strategy, paired with exceptional care in design, can truly set a project apart. Since then, we have collaborated with over 50 detail-oriented organizations to help them shine. Most recently, we delivered our first major project within the Bittensor ecosystem for Oro Agents.

The value we bring.

Within the Bittensor ecosystem, and in life, impressions matter from day one. Having a quality, reflective, and consistent visual identity allows you to communicate clearly and build credibility. That trust ultimately drives momentum, investment and community participation. Our project with Oro not only helped them create their design system, but helped them clarify to themselves what they truly stood for.

As a next-generation team of empaths, our philosophy is built around overdelivering for people we want to win. No recurring projects. No standardized templates. Everything we create is fully custom, backed by your feedback, shaped by taste, and designed with genuine care.
