ABOUT US
ABOUT FINITE ARCH
Finite Arch is an invention and innovation company. We explore possibilities, create original inventions and develop ideas towards practical use.
Our work begins with a simple question: could there be a better way?
01 / THE BUSINESS
Finite Arch
We focus on technologies, systems and products that could solve real problems. We look at what people are trying to achieve, what makes it difficult and where a different approach could help.
Possibility, invention and development are the three connected parts of our work. We identify an opportunity, give an original idea a clear form and investigate how it could work in practice.
Our Inventions pages explain the ideas. Our Projects pages follow the research and development around them, showing what has been learned and what remains to be understood.

03 / THE PERSON
Simon Macbeth
Simon Macbeth is the inventor guiding the ideas and direction behind Finite Arch.
His starting point is understanding the problem: what someone needs to achieve, which assumptions shape the current approach and how the different parts affect one another.
That thinking becomes a set of ideas and questions to investigate. Evidence and collaboration help establish which possibilities are worth developing further.
