After obtaining a BFA in Furniture Design from RISD, Matthew cofounded Pneuhaus, a Providence-based studio that has spent a decade honing the craft of inflatable architecture. Building on the legacies of Buckminster Fuller and Frei Otto, Pneuhaus’ work has been exhibited and installed across the United States and Europe. Matthew is a critic at RISD, where he teaches Lightweight Structure.

In addition to her work in the video game industry, Susan is a versatile artist and has honed her skills in various mediums, including graphic design, painting, and ceramics.
