Pronounciation: "KO-FAK-TRS"

Welcome to CoFactors, the research + development crucible for Catalyst Group Design. Here, we expand and codify our observations and experience independent of clientdriven situations. Our position as consultants gives us an exceptionally broad view of the Web and interface design issues + culture. Feel free to link to our blog, send feedback, download white papers or even to read about developments in our own business.

Other things we do

Anyone who has worked with us knows that, as passionate as we are about our work, we also feel it’s tremendously important to maintain “a life” outside of work. Maintaining this balance keeps us energetic and enthusiastic about what we do during business hours…

My latest project is to try my hand at making a batch of wine with a couple of friends — one of whom is keeping up a blog to document the process. His posts also contain a very nice explanation of the winemaking process, which is one of those things that’s pretty simple to do, but very difficult to do well.

Check out the first few posts:

Preparing for The Crush

The Crush

It’s been a really fun project so far. And if we end up with drinkable wine — we’ll have a LOT of it! Stay tuned.
