Mobile app design for products that ship.

We design and ship native iOS and Android products for banks, insurers, retailers, and consumer brands. Research-led, built around a measurable success metric, ready for engineering hand-off or co-build.

N° 02 — What we do

End-to-end mobile product design.

Discovery & strategy

Stakeholder interviews, market and competitor scan, technical and platform constraints. Output: a one-page brief everyone signs off on.

Information architecture

Content audit, taxonomy, navigation patterns. Output: a tested architecture that holds up across releases.

UX design & prototyping

Key flows, edge cases, interaction states. Working prototype in Figma or code. Validated with users before high-fidelity.

Visual design & motion

Crafted screens for iOS and Android, native components, accessible typography, motion that earns its weight.

Design systems

Tokenised, multi-brand-ready libraries. Figma + code parity. Documentation that engineers actually use.

Hand-off & co-build

Engineering quality reviewed against the design system. Often partnered with the client’s in-house team for scale; sometimes we ship the v1 ourselves.

N° 03 — Why us

Senior team. No middle layer.

  • Sixteen years shipping mobile products — not a generalist studio that also does mobile.
  • 120+ products shipped, including banking, fintech, retail, travel, and healthcare.
  • Four international design awards (FWA, Stevie, Awwwards).
  • Bilingual delivery in English and Spanish; Turkish for legacy clients.
  • European timezone, Barcelona base, in-person and remote engagements.

N° 05 — FAQ

Common questions about mobile app design.

How long does a mobile app design engagement take?
Discovery and definition takes 4–6 weeks. Full design — research through ship-ready handoff — typically runs 12–16 weeks for a v1 product. Faster for narrow-scope features; longer for multi-platform launches.
Do you only design, or also build?
Both. Our engineering team writes Swift, Kotlin, React Native, and web. We often hand-off to the client’s in-house team and quality-review against the design system; sometimes we build the v1 ourselves and transition the codebase later.
How much does mobile app design cost?
Discovery alone: €15–25K. End-to-end design + design system: €60–120K depending on scope and platforms. Co-build engagements run €120K–€350K. We share fixed-scope quotes after the initial conversation.
Do you work with early-stage startups?
Yes — typically post-Seed or Series A, when there’s product clarity and a small in-house team. We don’t do free pitch work or speculative discovery.
Which platforms do you specialise in?
iOS and Android natively. We use SwiftUI/Compose where appropriate; React Native when the client prefers a single codebase. Wearable (Apple Watch, Wear OS) and tablet treatments included where the product warrants.
How does design handoff work?
Design system delivered as a Figma library + matching code components. Specs include states, motion, accessibility annotations, and edge cases. Weekly office hours during the build for the engineering team’s questions.
