Square Holes by name, square holes by nature. Inspired by Apple’s 1997 Think Different campaign that seeded decades of  growth innovation for the company – “the round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently.” Square Holes pride ourselves on creative problem-solving and looking at the world from a slightly different angle – leading with curiosity and with innovation always top of mind.
