"Capsule believed in our idea and was engaged with it at a personal level from the very beginning. They got it, cared about it and extended relationships in their network to help ensure its success. The Capsule team approached this entire project with a thoughtful design perspective and helped us lower material costs, all the while meeting a very aggressive deadline and working on many different pieces. In fact, we were so pleased with their work and our experience that we hired their talents for our other ventures." — Michael and Crystal Boyle, Founders
