We can help you to better understand your users and find solutions to succeed in today’s ever-changing markets.
The power of our human-centered creation process brings value to almost any consumer-related challenge—we help you to better integrate the user’s needs into your R&D process.
Tangible experience prototypes are more convincing than written documents—we help you to create an appealing expression of an idea. Only good stories make great products—we help you to tell these stories.
Whether it is in collaboration with your internal team or as a self-contained research and development unit, we find the best way to support your organization. We offer a range of project durations, from intense workshops to longer-term programs.

In the beginning we just listen, watch and learn.
We gather insights from various stakeholders within and outside your organization, as well as from your current and potential users. Further, we seek out lessons from analogous experiences and competitors. These insights combine to provide us with a deep understanding of the user’s needs and motivations. This is the foundation that informs our designs and concepts later on.
Based on the insights from our research, we take a second look at the goals of the project to decide (in close collaboration with you) the most promising areas to focus on.
Approaching the project in this holistic way ensures that you get the most out of the time and resources spent.
Of course the creation of tangible and abstract concepts is the central component of our approach.
Informed by the lessons from the research, and accompanied by numerous user tests, we come up with creative and straightforward solutions. Through various rapid prototyping techniques, and our exceptional expertise in current technologies, typography and design, we are able to take our concepts to a higher level quickly.
Validating our ideas with real users is an integral part of our approach and accompanies the creative process.
Initial sketches are shared with users to gather feedback early. Informal user tests with “just enough” prototypes throughout the design process validate our concepts and ideas on the fly. This constant feedback also informs and inspires our designs again and again.
Telling an engaging story around the idea is as important as the idea itself.
We help you to communicate the outcome of the project to your current or potential users, to stakeholders in your organization, to developers and engineers and even to the media.
From high fidelity simulations, prototypes and cinematic scenario movies to detailed development guidelines—we will make sure that you have the right tools to create the impact you need.
We come up with innovative solutions, bold designs and frank opinions. We do this through close collaboration between interdisciplinary teams.
With roots all over the world, we operate from an open workspace in the heart of the vibrant metropolis of Berlin.
Our young core team has worked for clients ranging from small start-ups to big corporations in Europe, the US and Asia.
Our expertise covers interaction design, typography, cultural studies, software engineering and business management.
Our large and versatile network of collaborators gives us the flexibility to find the best fit for any challenge.
