our job
In the design process a design agency needs to provide a wide range of competences from psychanalogy to industrial production all applied to a wide range of design typology like home appliances, sport equipment, cosmetics accessories, architecture, food and beverage, commercial retailing, signalization, industrial products, aerospace, medical devices, biomedical equipments, finally all related to corporate and brand image. We think that our job is to provide manufacturing companies with Aesthetic intelligence to make sure their products will be useful with happiness by anticipation. In the end, in addition to the amazing functionalities we add value by recognition. You make a promise, we make it true.
.01
convention
According to the complexity of the call for tender or the state of the client's project or request:
The designer is analysing the demande to structure a design partnership in steps corresponding to readiness levels. Quotes the steps and make a proposal with 3 grades of collaboration in a contract specifying all details of the convention.
Innovation meaning discoveries,
This agreement leaves opportunities to changes for novelties or extensions during the contract.
The agreement fixes both step prices and fees.

concept
To bear a team of competences to build a coherent project it is essential to make sure they all have heard the same story. Why they are involved in the same boat.
The designer is analysing and construing the environmental context, (ideas, market, social, and human, technical, economics, trends, … ) to provides its vision with a visual approach sloged with few critical words in 2 steps respectively called mood board and story telling. This is the environment inside which is defined the Concept. The intension is clear and can be transmitted and shared.
The designer can already provide with a fictional name and product signature, a strategy.
.03
