Prototyping & Design Acceleration
Digital objects are rich sensory experiences whose design owes a lot to interaction, animation, transitions, and gestures. These traits are difficult to render only through images. A digital prototype is the fastest way to experience a design while it’s still being tuned, allowing to prove a design direction, test its technical feasibility and gather real world user feedback.
Coupled to Lean Development, prototypes easily lend themselves to evolve into MVPs (Minimum Viable Products), accelerating time to market and providing concrete business feedback over design choices and user expectations.

Lean Development & MVPs
Borrowing from lean methodologies adopted in manifacturing, lean development provides a quick feedback circle that allows to innovate iteratively (over design or functions) while building a working product. We embrace Agile and Lean believing they provide a better model to building digital objects than traditional waterfall workfows. We advise over the process, encouraging collaboration and pairing with your teams in order to keep design, development, and evaluation truly agile. We develop the MVPs based on prototypes or on a standalone stream, with solid foundations that allow the product to scale all the way to its complete feature set and full UX.

Technical Feasibility & Front‐End Research
There are two sides to pushing the limits of creativity in designing digital objects: talented (and sometimes crazy) designers, and daring and exceptionally competent developers. We take the latter role, with passion, curiosity and unrelentless courage to break the rules, extract every bit of performance, push the limits and make impossible ideas come to life. We pair with your design team and support their creativity by providing feasibility checks and state of the art knowledge over technical implementations. And where best practices fall short, we independently research original and innovative solutions.

Fast Prototyping
Fast prototyping is a way to comp digital objects to provide immediate feedback over elements of design. In the design of digital objects, many interactive and cinematic solutions cannot be effectively presented unless they can be experienced. We work with your design team to turn their vision into a realistic prototype, for the Web or mobile devices, allowing to experience transitions, animations, gesture interaction, advanced form filling or any other element of the design, whether for client presentations, pre–development product videos, focus group testing or design explorations.
