About Us
Creative work for outsiders
The House Outside is a creative studio & consultancy for brands and individuals unapologetically changing things for the better. We work with cultural organisations that want to make the world a kinder, greener, fairer place.
Change always comes from outsider thinking
How we see things
It’s all Story
Systems are story. Culture is story. Change is story. Us humans, we understand the world through story. So to make the world a better place, we gotta tell better stories.
Endlessly Curious
Questions open space for understanding. And we love asking questions. In fact, Kevin even started a Cult of Curiosity.
Radically Human
Because in the age of AI, humanity is a radical act.
Nimble by design
Two fingers to the big agency model. We curate teams of world-class creative thinkers who fit the project. Creative outsiders that deliver.
Hi, I’m Kevin
I’ve always felt like an outsider.
Growing up as a third-culture kid, I learned to see the world from the edges. I observed. I listened. I asked questions.
As I grew older, I pushed for change. At school, that got me in trouble. At work, that got me fired. But the fire for justice never faded.
Over time, I realised I’m not alone. We’re all outsiders.
We’ve all felt different. Left out. Unheard. Not because we are broken, but because the system is broken. And worst of all, the traditional houses of power like it that way.
But outside that system, we are the many. And if we choose to stand together for something that matters, we have the power to change things for the better.
This is what I call the house outside — a house of power built by the many, outside of the traditional system.
If you’ve felt this way too, I’d love to chat.
