Research and Design for the People Who Use Your Systems

How We Work

⁰¹

Research

From interviewing customers to usability testing to co-designing sessions, Andrew and his team utilize a number of research methodologies to get a true understanding of user needs and stakeholder requirements.

Synthesize

Andrew leads Starting Point Studios, but they’re just that: the starting point. Once we understand the nuances and complexities of a project, we pull together the people we need to satisfy our clients and create joy in theirs.

⁰³

Build

Sometimes a UX prototype is all a client needs. Or perhaps help with their design strategy. Other times it’s a fully functional mobile app. Once we’ve established direction, we pull the right people together and create magic.
