•Graphical User Interface Design
•User Research Services
•Usability and Ergonomics Design

Our EXPERIENCE services cover usability and

Usability is not a separate component of design;

that the product being developed meets the

customers, while also taking into account the
goals of the end-user’s work or other activity.
We deliver to our clients both conceptual and
strategic studies, as well as concrete products.

5. INNOVATE services
• Idea Creation
• Problem solving
All successful products have initially been ideas.
Many times new ideas are born in the minds of
individuals, but they can be also created in a
controlled manner in groups. Idealization in a
group can be a great tool when new ideas are
needed in faster pace.
Our INNOVATE services are designed to create
new product and service ideas and resolve
product-related problems. In idea making
processes we use the most widely-known
methods and our own specific variations of
them.
