Terms of Use

This site is published by OneSpace Solutions Inc. to show our work and to let you get in touch. Using it means you agree to what is below. The photography and writing on it are ours, and anything you send through the inquiry form is read and answered rather than treated as confidential.

What follows says the same thing in the form an agreement needs. Each section opens with the plain sentence and states its clauses underneath — read as far as you need to.

1. This website and everything published on it (the Site) is operated by OneSpace Solutions Inc., a Washington corporation, of 601 Union St, Ste 1730, Seattle, WA 98101 (OneSpace, we, us, our).
2. You means the person using the Site and, where they use it for an organization, that organization as well. If you are acting for an organization you confirm you are authorized to accept these Terms on its behalf.
3. Content means everything we publish here: photography, drawings, film, written descriptions, the design of the pages, and the code behind them.
4. Submission means anything you send us through the inquiry form or to an address published on the Site — a project description, a drawing, a specification, a file, a question.
5. Terms means this document, as amended under section 3.

1. By accessing or using the Site you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to them, please do not use the Site.
2. If you send us an inquiry you agree to them again and expressly: the form asks you to confirm it before it will send, and will not send without it.
3. These Terms govern the Site and nothing else. Work we do for a client is governed by the agreement for that work, and where these Terms and a signed agreement disagree, the signed agreement governs.

1. We may amend these Terms. An amended version takes effect when it is posted here, and the date at the top of this page records when that was.
2. An amendment applies from the date it is posted and not to anything that happened before it. Continuing to use the Site after that date is how you accept it.
3. Where an amendment materially changes what you may do, what we may do with a Submission, or how a dispute is resolved, we will say so on this page rather than only moving the date.

1. You may read the Site, link to its pages, and reproduce pages for your own reference or for circulation within your organization.
2. That permission is personal to you, non-exclusive, revocable, and limited to what clause 4.1 describes. All other rights are reserved.
3. You may not republish, sell, license, or otherwise commercially exploit the Site or any Content, and you may not present any part of it as your own work or as anybody else's, without our written permission first.

1. You shall not interfere with, or attempt to interfere with, the Site or the systems on which it runs, including by:
   1. accessing it by automated means at a volume that degrades it for other readers;
   2. probing, scanning or testing its vulnerability, or breaching or circumventing any security or access control;
   3. using the inquiry form to transmit unsolicited bulk communications;
   4. introducing malicious code, or anything designed to disrupt it; or
   5. circumventing a rate limit or any other measure we use to protect it.
2. You shall not use the Site or any Content to train, fine-tune, evaluate or otherwise develop any machine-learning or artificial-intelligence system, and you shall not extract Content by text or data mining, in either case without our written permission first. This studio's photography and written case studies are its argument for the work, and this is the clause that says so.
3. You shall not access the Site by automated means at all, except a search-engine crawler obeying the directives we publish at /robots.txt. Publishing those directives is a request to a crawler; this clause is an obligation on whoever operates it.
4. You shall not frame the Site, present it within another site, or use our name or marks in a link in a way that suggests an endorsement or a relationship that does not exist.
5. You shall not impersonate any person, misrepresent an affiliation, or use the Site for any unlawful purpose.
6. So that clause 5.1(c) can be enforced rather than only stated, the form counts recent submissions against the sending address and declines further ones for a short period.

1. All Content is owned by us, or used with the permission of the person who owns it, and is protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws.
2. Projects shown here were delivered for clients. The spaces, buildings and brands in them belong to those clients, and their appearance on the Site gives you no rights in them.
3. OneSpace and the OneSpace mark are ours.
4. Nothing on the Site grants any license to Content except the one in section 4, and no right is granted by implication or estoppel.

1. Furniture, fixtures and finishes shown in project photography are the products of their manufacturers, named where naming them is useful. Nothing here is an offer to sell any of them.
2. All names, marks and logos other than ours are the property of their respective owners. They appear for identification only, and their appearance is not an endorsement by their owner, or a claim by us of any affiliation.
3. If you own rights in anything published here and believe it appears without authority, write to sales@onespace-solutions.com identifying the material, where on the Site it appears, what right you hold, and how to reach you. We will look into it and, where a complaint is well founded, remove the material or credit it as its owner asks.

1. A Submission is used to respond to you and for nothing else. It is not added to a mailing list and not passed to anyone selling anything. The privacy notice sets out what is collected and for how long.
2. The telephone number the form asks for is used to respond to your inquiry. We do not use it for marketing calls or text messages, we do not add it to any campaign, and we do not pass it to anyone who would.
3. You represent and warrant that a Submission is yours to send; that it does not infringe anybody's intellectual property or other rights; and that it contains nothing unlawful and nothing covered by somebody else's confidence.
4. We do not warrant that a Submission will reach us or that we will reply to it. Please do not rely on the form for anything time-critical — telephone or email us instead, and both are on the contact page.

1. A Submission is not confidential unless we have agreed in writing that it is.
2. Where you tell us a brief is sensitive, we will put a non-disclosure agreement in place before you send the detail, and that agreement rather than this section will govern what we do with it.
3. FF&E briefs resemble one another: the same sectors, the same problems, often the same manufacturers. Sending us a Submission does not restrict us from working on projects of a similar kind, for any client, at any time, and gives you no claim over any such work of ours.
4. We will not use anything identifiable about your project for anyone else, and we do not name a prospective client's project without permission.

1. You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, copy, store, transmit and display a Submission, and to disclose it to our personnel, professional advisors and suppliers, for the purpose of evaluating and responding to it and of performing any engagement that follows from it.
2. That license lasts as long as we hold the Submission under the privacy notice, and ends when it is deleted.
3. Comments and suggestions you send us about the Site or the studio itself are different: we may use those without restriction and without owing you anything for them.
4. Apart from the license in clause 10.1, nothing here transfers ownership of a Submission. It stays yours.

1. The Site links to sites we do not control and are not responsible for.
2. A link is not an endorsement of the site it points to.
3. Their own terms and privacy notices apply once you arrive, and we do not control what they publish or what they collect.

1. Content is general and descriptive. It is not professional advice, and reading the Site or sending an inquiry creates no professional, advisory or fiduciary relationship between us.
2. Timelines, budget ranges, lead times and process steps shown here are illustrative. None is a quotation, an offer, or a commitment to deliver on any particular terms.
3. What we will do for a particular project, and on what terms, is set out in the agreement for that project. Clause 2.3 governs which document wins if the two disagree.

3. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties. Where that is so, clauses 13.1 and 13.2 apply to you only as far as that jurisdiction permits.

3. Clauses 14.1 and 14.2 apply however a claim is framed, whether in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, statute or otherwise.
4. They do not apply to anything that cannot lawfully be limited — nothing in these Terms limits our liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for any other liability that applicable law does not permit us to exclude.
5. Some jurisdictions do not allow some of these exclusions or limits. Where that is so, clauses 14.1 to 14.3 apply to you only as far as that jurisdiction permits, and our liability is limited to the greatest extent it does.

1. You will indemnify, defend and hold harmless OneSpace and its officers, directors, employees and agents against any claim, liability, damage, loss or expense, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or relating to:
   1. your breach of these Terms;
   2. a Submission of yours, or a breach of the warranties in clause 8.3;
   3. your infringement of anybody else's rights; or
   4. your unlawful use of the Site.
2. We will tell you promptly about any claim we want covered. You may not settle one in a way that puts an obligation on us, or admits anything on our behalf, without our written consent, and we may take part in the defense with our own advisors at our own cost.

1. We may suspend, restrict or refuse your access to the Site at any time, with or without notice, where we reasonably believe these Terms have been breached or the Site's security or availability is at risk.
2. We may change, suspend or discontinue the Site, or any part of it, at any time.
3. Our rights under this section are in addition to every other remedy available to us, and using one does not give up another.
4. Section 1, clause 2.3, sections 6, 7, clause 8.3, and sections 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17 and 18 survive any suspension of your access and your ceasing to use the Site, for as long as their subject matter requires.

1. These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Site, are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
2. The state and federal courts sitting in King County, Washington have exclusive jurisdiction over any such dispute, and each of us consents to that venue and to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
3. Before filing anything, please write to sales@onespace-solutions.com describing the dispute and what you would like done about it, and allow thirty days for us to answer. Most of what reaches that address is settled by somebody reading it.
4. Each of us knowingly and voluntarily gives up any right to a trial by jury in any proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site.
5. Any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site must be brought within one year after it arose. To the extent the law permits a period to be shortened by agreement, a claim brought later than that is permanently barred.
6. The Site is directed to people in the United States. We make no representation that it, or any Content, is appropriate or available anywhere else. If you use it from outside the United States you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for whatever your own local law requires of you.

1. These Terms, together with the privacy notice and the cookie policy, are the whole of what is agreed between us about the Site, and replace anything said about it beforehand. Clause 2.3 governs the relationship between these Terms and an agreement for a project.
2. If any clause is held unenforceable, it is to be read as narrowly as it needs to be to become enforceable, or removed if it cannot be. Every other clause stays in force.
3. If we do not enforce a clause straight away, we have not given it up, and enforcing it once does not oblige us to enforce it every time.
4. You may not assign these Terms or any right under them. We may assign them to a successor in connection with a merger, an acquisition, or a sale of the business or its assets.
5. These Terms are between you and us alone. Nobody else may enforce any part of them.
6. Neither of us is liable for a failure to perform caused by something outside our reasonable control, including an act of nature, a failure of a network or hosting provider, an interruption to power or communications, an act of government, or industrial action.
7. Headings are there to help you find things and do not affect how any clause is read.
8. You agree to receive communications from us electronically, and that an electronic communication satisfies any legal requirement that a communication be made in writing.
9. Legal notice to us goes to OneSpace Solutions Inc., 601 Union St, Ste 1730, Seattle, WA 98101, with a copy to sales@onespace-solutions.com. Notice to you goes to the email or postal address in your most recent Submission, and is treated as received the day after it is sent.
10. Accessibility. We build and test this site against WCAG 2.2 Level AA, and we treat anything that falls short of it as a defect rather than a preference. If something here is hard to use, or you cannot reach what you were looking for, write to sales@onespace-solutions.com and say where you were — we will get you what you needed another way, and fix what you found.
11. Anything else goes to sales@onespace-solutions.com, or to OneSpace Solutions Inc., 601 Union St, Ste 1730, Seattle, WA 98101.
