(What we do)

Four ways we can help.

Every engagement starts with a real problem. We bring research, strategy, and design to bear on it, in whatever combination the work requires.

User Research

Bad design doesn't come from bad designers — it comes from wrong assumptions about who the user is and what they actually need. We run structured research that replaces guesswork with direct evidence, giving your team a shared, accurate picture of reality before a single design decision gets made.

  • Discovery interviews that reveal what users do, not just what they say
  • Usability testing that surfaces friction before it reaches production
  • Survey design and analysis that separates signal from noise at scale
  • Competitive benchmarking to understand what users expect from your category
  • Affinity mapping that turns raw data into patterns your team can act on
  • A findings report with ranked, actionable design implications — not just observations

Business Strategy

Research findings without a clear direction are just expensive documentation. We take what we've learned about your users and translate it into a strategic roadmap your team can follow — with a clear rationale for every prioritisation decision, and a shared definition of what success looks like before anyone opens a design tool.

  • Journey mapping that shows exactly where users drop off, disengage, or struggle
  • Prioritisation framework that ranks opportunities by real impact and feasibility
  • Messaging architecture — what to say, to whom, and in what order
  • Stakeholder alignment workshops that resolve competing internal priorities
  • Success metrics defined upfront, so you know when the work is actually done
  • A strategic brief your design and development teams can execute against with confidence

Website Design

Most websites fail because they were built around what the company wants to say, not what the audience needs to hear. We design from the message out — starting with who visits, what they're looking for, and what decision you want them to make. The visual design follows that logic. Not the other way around.

  • Audience research and content hierarchy before any visual work begins
  • Information architecture that guides visitors toward a decision, not just content
  • Wireframes that prove the structure works before visual design starts
  • Full responsive visual design across desktop, tablet, and mobile
  • Interaction specs and micro-animations that make the experience feel considered
  • WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility built into the design, not reviewed at the end
  • Developer handoff with annotated specs, assets, and a complete style guide

Internal Documentation

Every team has knowledge that lives in someone's head, a Slack thread from two years ago, or a document nobody can find. When that knowledge isn't structured and accessible, decisions slow down, onboarding drags, and the same mistakes get made twice. We turn your existing knowledge into something your team actually uses.

  • Knowledge audit that maps what exists, what's missing, and what's outdated
  • Document hierarchy designed around how your team searches — not how things were written
  • Process documentation and SOPs clear enough to follow without asking anyone
  • Onboarding playbooks that bring new hires up to speed in days, not weeks
  • Visual templates for recurring communication that maintain consistency without effort
  • Delivered in Figma, Notion, or your existing toolstack — no migration required

The Method

Four steps from research to delivery. Every engagement runs through them in order.

Synkora method in action
01

Discover

Stakeholder interviews, heuristics analysis, competitive analysis. We immerse ourselves in your context before forming any opinion. Redefining the design problem and scoping it down to a solvable size.

02

Research

User interviews, surveys, behavioural studies. We let heuristics analysis define the direction, not gut feelings or inherited briefs from past projects.

03

Synthesize

Findings shape strategy. We define a design direction that serves both user needs and business goals — grounded in evidence, not opinion.

04

Design

Purposeful visual communication across websites, documents, and systems. Every element serves the strategy. Nothing is decorative for its own sake.

What to expect

Four engagement formats, from a focused audit to a full studio partnership.

UX Audit

2–3 weeks

A focused review of an existing product or website. Heuristics, competitor benchmarking, and prioritised recommendations.

Research Sprint

3–5 weeks

User interviews, surveys, and synthesis. Delivered as a strategic findings report with clear design implications.

Website Design

4–8 weeks

Research-informed website from strategy through final design. Includes content architecture, visual design, and developer handoff.

Full Engagement

8–12 weeks

Discovery, research, strategy, and design as a complete package. Best for teams who want us to own the problem end-to-end.
