Design services we offer

Every kind of design a growing brand needs, from one studio and one design system.

UI/UX design based on research, not guesses

Good interfaces come from understanding what users are trying to do. We research first, then design and test.

We interview users, review analytics and map the tasks people come to complete. Then we design user flows and wireframes, turn them into high-fidelity interfaces and test clickable prototypes with real users. Testing with 5 users finds about 85% of usability problems, according to Nielsen Norman Group.

Every design meets WCAG 2.2 level AA, with a text contrast of at least 4.5:1, so it works for everyone.

  • User interviews and personas
  • User flows and information architecture
  • Wireframes and prototypes
  • Usability test reports
  • High-fidelity UI in Figma
  • Developer handoff

UI design vs UX design

UX design decides how a product works; UI design decides how it looks and feels. Every product needs both.

Focus
UX design: Structure, flows and usability
UI design: Visual style, layout and interaction
Questions it answers
UX design: Can users complete their task easily?
UI design: Is it clear, attractive and on brand?
Deliverables
UX design: Research, user flows, wireframes, prototypes
UI design: Mockups, components, design system
Tools
UX design: Maze, Miro, FigJam, Figma
UI design: Figma, Framer, Rive
Measured by
UX design: Task success, time on task, errors
UI design: Consistency, accessibility, brand fit

Types of design, compared

There are 8 main design disciplines. The table compares what each delivers, where it is used and the tools we use for it.

Most brands need several disciplines at once. Running them from one studio and one design system keeps the logo, the website, the app and every ad looking like the same company.

Design systems that scale with your brand

A design system is the single source of truth for how your brand looks and behaves, from colour tokens to finished components.

We define design tokens for colour, type, spacing and radius, build components with variants and states in Figma, and document how to use them. When developers build from the same tokens, design and code stay in sync, new pages ship faster and every screen stays consistent.

Design tools we use

Industry-standard tools, so your files stay usable by any designer or developer.

Frequently asked questions about Design Services

What design services do you offer?

We offer UI/UX design, product design, web design, brand identity, design systems, marketing and social graphics, print and packaging, illustration and motion design.

What is the difference between UI and UX design?

UX design decides how a product works, through research, flows and wireframes. UI design decides how it looks and feels, through visual style, components and interactions.

How much does design cost?

Design cost depends on the discipline, the number of screens or assets, research depth and revision rounds. We quote from a defined scope after a short discovery call.

How long does a brand identity take?

A brand identity with logo, colours, typography and guidelines typically takes 3 to 6 weeks, including research and revision rounds.

Do you design in Figma?

Yes. Interfaces, prototypes and design systems are designed in Figma, and brand and print work uses Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign.

Do you test designs with users?

Yes. We test prototypes with real users before development, because testing with 5 users finds about 85% of usability problems, according to Nielsen Norman Group.

Will the designs be accessible?

Yes. Every design meets WCAG 2.2 level AA for contrast, text size, focus states and touch targets.

Who owns the design files?

You do. You receive all source files, exported assets and the licences for fonts and images used.

Can you also build what you design?

Yes. Our development team builds websites, apps and stores directly from our designs, so nothing is lost in handoff.

Do you offer ongoing design support?

Yes. A monthly design retainer covers marketing assets, product screens and design system updates.
