Andrew Miller and David Ruperti are the founders of Andy and Dave, a design studio in Brooklyn, dedicated to work that draws inspiration from the experience of contemporary life. In 2007 Andy and Dave began not as a studio, but as an undefined form of practice that permitted a kind of no-holds-barred exploration of design ideas without client or market-imposed constraints. Since then it has evolved toward resembling something closer to a design studio. The work is concept driven with a strong focus on exploring the blurring boundaries of the design disciplines with particular attention paid to evolving cultural norms around social media, identity, and consumer culture.
