Custom Software Development

UI/UX Design & Frontend Engineering

User research, wireframes, high-fidelity design, and pixel-perfect frontend implementation with component libraries that scale. Design and engineering as one team, not two handoffs.

For CTOs whose teams waste weeks on every UI change because there's no component library

For product managers shipping inconsistent UIs across features

For founders who need a polished frontend that builds user trust from first interaction

The Problem

Why UI Development Stays Slow and Inconsistent

Design-dev disconnect

Designers hand off static mockups, developers interpret them differently, and the final product matches neither vision. Endless revision cycles waste everyone's time.

Inconsistent UI

Every feature looks different because there's no shared component library. Buttons, forms, and layouts vary across screens, eroding user trust.

Accessibility afterthought

WCAG compliance gets flagged in QA or worse, by legal. Retrofitting accessibility into an existing UI costs 3x more than building it in from the start.

Slow iteration

Every new screen is built from scratch because there are no reusable components. What should take a day takes a week.

No design system

No tokens, no component library, no documentation. Every developer makes their own decisions about spacing, color, and typography.

Our Approach

Design Systems That Make New Features Faster, Not Slower

We build design systems that make new features faster to ship, not slower. Design and engineering work as one team from day one.

Research-informed design

User interviews, usability testing, heuristic evaluation, and competitive analysis before any wireframe.

Design system first

Tokens, components, and patterns defined in Figma and mirrored in code from week one.

Accessible by default

WCAG 2.1 AA baked into components, not bolted on after QA flags issues.

Storybook-documented components

Every component documented with props, states, variants, and usage guidelines.

Visual regression testing

Chromatic or Percy catches unintended visual changes before they reach production.

Maturity Model

Where Is Your Design System Today?

We can meet you at any level and help you progress to the next.

1

Ad-hoc

No shared styles, one-off CSS, no component reuse. Every new page is built from scratch.

2

Component Library

Shared React components exist but aren't documented. Design and code are loosely connected.

3

Design System

Figma library mirrors coded components. Storybook documents usage. New features use existing components.

4

Tokenized System

Design tokens drive both Figma and code. Theme switching, white-labeling, and multi-brand support are trivial.

"Where is your organization today? We can meet you there and build toward a fully tokenized design system."

What We Deliver

Capabilities That Transform Your Frontend Workflow

Design system delivery

Figma library + coded component library, tokenized.

→ New features use existing components — 3x faster UI development.

Accessibility auditing

WCAG 2.1 AA compliance testing and remediation.

→ Legal risk eliminated, inclusive user experience.

Frontend migration

Incremental migration from legacy CSS to modern component architecture.

→ No big-bang rewrite, continuous improvement.

Visual regression testing

Automated screenshot comparison in CI.

→ No more "who broke the UI?" after merges.

Design ops consulting

Figma workspace organization, contribution guidelines, design review process.

→ Design team scales without chaos.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you handle both design and frontend?
Yes. Our teams include UX researchers, UI designers, and frontend engineers working together. No handoff gaps.
What's in a design system engagement?
UI audit, design tokens, Figma component library, coded React/Vue components, Storybook documentation, and a contribution guide.
Can you audit our existing UI?
Yes. We run accessibility audits (WCAG 2.1 AA), usability heuristic evaluations, and design consistency reviews.
How do you handle design-to-code?
Design tokens sync between Figma and code. Components are built in parallel with design — no waterfall.
Do you work with Figma/Sketch?
Primarily Figma. We can migrate Sketch files to Figma as part of the engagement.
What does it cost?
A design system build typically runs $40K-$80K for 8-12 weeks. UX research sprints start at $10K for 2 weeks. Frontend pods are priced monthly.
