Design culture, hands-on.

It’s not a project. It’s not a sprint. We embed designers into companies, fractionally.

Founders that put care into what they’re building aren’t outsourcing design. They make it a function within their team. A function that produces decisions in real time:

Someone that takes their hand and says “Here’s what this could be.” A sparring partner that can look at a hundred options and pick the one, killing bad ideas fast. Someone who ships, but holds the line on quality at the same time. And most importantly: someone other great people want to build with.

Building that function is hard. Some fantastic founders have struggled with it.

We offer a path to it.

You get a slice of our team. It consists of software designers, brand designers, and collateral designers. Deliberately selected, all seasoned. We show you what could be, help you get there, and then make sure it lasts.

“Thanks to them, our product and company are now in completely different place from when we first reached out. They understand business, bring their taste, and come with a rare kind of adaptability.”
“They raised the bar for design for us. Not only did they come in, do the work, but they also found and connected us with our founding designer. We just hired our second designer through them as well, so in a way, they never really left.”
“As an early stage company, we needed someone in the trenches with us — someone opinionated enough to challenge us. David quickly became an integral part of the team and has been deeply involved in our product decisions ever since.”
“Antoine and Hugo quickly became important members of our team. They were part of the reason we were able to build Obvious so quickly.”
“We got the design function we urgently needed when hiring full-time was hard. They understood the product in no time and were always thinking a few steps ahead, exploring things we hadn’t considered. It genuinely felt like they had been a part of the team since the beginning.”
Nico Ferreyra Co-founder and CEO at worked with David, Albert, Christian, andPaul
