Molo Design Ltd.

Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen have practiced architecture in Vancouver, British Columbia, since 1996. Prefabrication features prominently in many of their projects, and in 2003 they developed Molo Design as a place for researching materials and exploring ways of making space. The freestanding room partition and backdrop Soft Wall is one result. Focusing on economy, flexibility, and reusability in the atmosphere of a true cooperative, Molo enlists all its employees to take part in the assembly of its products, from stitching to packaging. As artists, they have found that “designing what a machine can make has brought them closer than ever to the process of fusing creative thought and making.”
