Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between UX and UI design?

UX (user experience) design focuses on how a service works, flows, interactions and information architecture. UI (user interface) design focuses on how it looks, visual hierarchy, typography, colour and component styling.

Do you follow GDS standards?

For public sector projects, we align with GDS (Government Digital Service) design principles and service standards. For other sectors, we apply equivalent user centred design rigour.

How do you ensure designs are accessible?

Accessibility is embedded from the start, colour contrast, keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility and touch targets are validated at design stage, not just in testing.
