The fa Story
In 2010, in search of the perfect home for freelance UX designers, we came up with the idea of a network for experts who had similarly high expectations of the functionality and aesthetics of digital products. Inspired by the ideas of the sharing economy that were emerging around us in Berlin's Betahaus - one of the first co-working spaces in Germany - we founded the company "functional aesthetics" on 1 January 2011. Our goal was to maintain the freelance work we had grown fond of and at the same time create opportunities to realise the truly innovative projects. We were visited by the former Vice-Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel, Minister Manuela Schwesig and State Secretary Yasmin Fahimi, with whom we discussed our fa model. In the following years, locations in Munich and Hamburg grew and we were given the opportunity to implement exciting projects for car companies, telecommunications companies and start-ups in Mumbai, New York and Beijing.
Today, we are pioneers of one of the first co-worker:in platforms and want to pass on the knowledge we have gained over the last 12 years. We want to develop digital products and services that put people at the centre. We want to use the opportunities of digitalisation to transform companies' business models - towards a circular and regenerative economy.
Our Initiatives and Partnerships
Every year we invest a not inconsiderable part of our profit in research and developmentof applications and tools for the development of regenerative business models.
