This is how we work with design
Today’s digital design is all about the user, combining stunning visuals with practical experiences – across all digital channels. We ensure your service provides an exceptional user experience, is grounded in a solid commercial strategy, and that every little detail is thoughtfully crafted.
Mobile app design
We’ve been designing apps since app stores launched, making it our specialty. It’s all about creating easy, five-star experiences on small screens. We help you prioritize key features that are easy to use on the go, and optimize the use of touchscreen interactions and push notifications. We follow the latest trends and best practices to help your app succeed.
“My goal is to simplify life by transforming complex products into easy-to-use solutions.”
Anu Mäkelä, Senior product designerWeb design
Modern web design is responsive, adapting to different screen sizes like phones, tablets, and computers – with larger screens offering more complex layouts. Accessibility is essential, and our designers make sure your service meets the necessary accessibility standards.
Service design
Service design takes a holistic view to your service. It aligns everything from people and processes to touchpoints and technologies to make sure they work well for your business and your users. This involves stakeholder and user interviews, doing research, and mapping out your entire customer journey.
Prototyping
A prototype is a visual, clickable, sneak peek of your product. It's an excellent communication tool for different stakeholder groups, and a cost-effective way to test and validate your ideas, designs, and features before full-scale production. Prototypes are your trusty sidekick for making smart design choices.
“I'm motivated by continuous horizontal learning and growth, primarily in design, while also expanding my understanding of business and development.”
Laura Ojala, Senior product designerUI Design
UI design, or user interface design, focuses on creating a visually pleasing experience. It covers layouts, typography, colors, icons, and buttons, for example. Our talented designers craft interfaces that align with your brand aesthetics, and are accessible, intuitive, and cohesive.
UX Design
While UI design focuses on making things look beautiful, user experience design centers on functionality and user journeys. It’s all about understanding the user thoroughly and creating a seamless experience that meets their needs. Our designers use techniques like user research, creating user flows and usability testing to deliver first-class user experiences.
Design systems
Design systems are essential for today’s digital products. They ensure consistency by providing best practices, guidelines, and reusable components, enabling teams to work efficiently and reduce cost in the long run. We create design systems that enhance your brand identity and scale with your needs.
“My goal working with a design system is to help teams collaborate better, focus more on the user experience and make products accessible.”

After investing in a digital product, you want it to succeed. We’ll help you track key metrics for user experience and business outcomes, ensuring you measure what matters most.
More of our design services
Accessibility
Accessibility has become a non-negotiable aspect of today's digital design. We ensure your product takes accessibility into account so that everyone, regardless of physical, sensory, or cognitive abilities, can use it as effectively as possible.
Business design
In business design, we align your digital services with your business goals – in a way that creates customer value. This includes defining your value proposition, identifying market opportunities, and developing growth and innovation strategies.
Product vision and strategy
Successful products need a long-term vision and strategy. Whereas a vision describes where your service is heading, the strategy outlines the specific plan to get there. Once we help you create both, you’ll have a clear plan to reach your goals and an inspiring vision to bring your team together.
Concept design
Concept design is the exciting first step in the design process where we bring your ideas to life. We collaborate with your end users to create and test concepts that show off the user benefits, look & feel, and business logic of your intended solution. A great concept design sets the stage for successful investments down the line.
Insight
Insight is about gaining a deep understanding of user behavior, needs, and market trends to help guide your design decisions. Our consumer studies help you serve users in the way they expect, while our business studies ensure you operate profitably.
DesignOps
DesignOps, or design operations, organize your designers, processes, tools and workflows to improve collaboration and efficiency. By removing internal blockers, we enable your designers to focus on creativity and delivering high quality work.

"The Qvikies fit in so well, I can hardly tell them apart from our in-house team any more. They are so deeply involved with our work that I don’t even think about them as consultants any more. Our cooperation has been fantastic all round."
"We are experts in our own industry but don’t necessarily know what’s going on in design in other industries. For that, we rely on Qvik’s expertise and partner network."
"Based on my experiences I can say that our collaboration with Qvik has been accessible, open, transparent, smart, adaptive and to the point."
"We feel this update has achieved its goals thus far, and we are delighted with the professional help Qvik provided during the process."
"We chose Qvik as our partner because of their holistic approach and domain expertise. Qvik always listened to us and answered our needs really well throughout the project. The results were brutally honest, and hence really valuable."
“We know the banking business, but Qvik’s fresh perspective and knowledge of other industries was valuable. It takes class and skill to create a smooth user experience that combines the financial sector’s regulatory requirements with a clear and simple customer experience. This was precisely what we were able to achieve together with Qvik.”
