a little
about us

a few small stories about us

We’re Bow & Mac.

The Human Need grew out of our real life together—two people trying to live with meaning through food, home, travel, nature, relationships, making things by hand, and the small questions that quietly appear along the way.

Bow

Loves food and making things.
Loves people and asking small questions
that sometimes lead somewhere much bigger.

Mac

Loves solving problems and making ideas
work in the real world—bringing them
back down to the ground of everyday life.

This is one life being lived.

This is one life we have had the chance to share.

And perhaps something here will help you return to your own life again.
