A design and research studio exploring how communities come together for sport in extreme conditions.

Founded by Randa Kherba, the studio uses ethnography, material innovation + storytelling to document what's disappearing + design what might endure.

In response to a rapidly changing climate, RKTIC explores what we call extreme normals: the evolving realities of life at the edge.
