In service to Harvard Square, we offer a temporary measure for moments of transition, helping vacant commercial spaces retain an appearance of optical decorum. Imagine (@snobs._)’s creations in a manner like a band-aid. For the purpose at hand, (@snobs._) focuses mainly on digital creations that only require a thin glass layer between the commercial volume and the street front it occupies.

(@snobs._) projects use various mediums, including public intervention, exhibition design, sculptural installation, set design, graphic design, and symposiums, if and only if the property owner desires them.

Pin Sangkaeo (@pin._) and Benson Joseph (@bensonj_media), who call themselves (@snobs._ ), are designers, creative directors, and future scholars who share a (snobby._) desire for experimental research that bridges academia and the public within the existing infrastructures of consumer culture. The pair holds a Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) from Syracuse University and a Master of Design Studies (MDes) in Mediums from Harvard Graduate School of Design. (@snobs._) is the professional practice they are building in Cambridge, Massachusetts, a place they call home.(@snobs._)’ s works have graced the international scene in countries such as Switzerland, Serbia, and Thailand.
