About
One team designs
your app,
your brand
and the campaign
that launches them,
so nothing gets lost
at the handover.
Thursday review
Colour tests
Vento, 2025
In 2017 two of us left a product agency and one left an ad agency. We had all watched good launches come apart at the handover between teams, so we built a studio where the people who design the app also design the logo and write the launch.
Today we are eight. Every project has one lead designer from the first call to launch day, a fixed price agreed before we start, and files your own team keeps using.
