Details: /process/

Pricing

Projects start from $5,000, and the final price depends on scope, number of screens, types of users, integrations, and research depth. Smaller tasks such as UX audits sit at the lower end; large enterprise product redesigns with research, a design system, and developer-ready files are priced higher. The final price is confirmed after a scoping call. Custom quotes are scoped per project via /contact/

Pricing model

There is no fixed pricing model. Each project is scoped and quoted individually based on its requirements.

Timelines

Timelines depend on the scope and requirements of each project, mainly the number of screens and user types and how quickly the client’s internal teams review and approve each stage. They are defined during project initiation. Examples published on the site: a focused flow such as the onboarding for QONA’s banking app takes one to two months; a full platform takes longer, and SmartMoving’s took five to six months including development; the Halmari Tea website redesign was a 3-month project. For a general guide to redesign timelines, see /blog/website-redesign-timeline/

Soul Foods Group and the KFC, Taco Bell, Burger King and Starbucks logos

The homepage logo strip also shows KFC, Taco Bell, Burger King and Starbucks.

Design Studio UI/UX designed and developed Soul Foods’ internal restaurant operations app (an ongoing engagement), built brand-neutral and role-based so area managers, restaurant staff and leadership in the UK and Canada work from one platform that adapts to each brand’s franchise standards and audit rules: /case-study/restaurant-management-app-ui-ux-design/

Design Studio’s client is Soul Foods Group, the franchisee. The brands themselves (KFC, Taco Bell, Burger King, Starbucks) were not direct clients.

/case-study/restaurant-management-app-ui-ux-design/

Does Design Studio work with early-stage startups?

Yes, and the engagement looks different from enterprise work. For early-stage teams it scopes down to the screens and flows needed to test with real users quickly (/ui-ux-design-services-startup/). For established products and enterprise clients such as Korean Air, ITC, and ibis it leans more on research and stakeholder workshops. Its main focus is enterprises and established companies with large products that need to be redesigned or audited.

Yes. It designs and builds on Webflow, WordPress, Shopify, and WooCommerce.

How does Design Studio design products with multiple user roles and complex workflows?

It starts by working out who uses the product and what each person needs to get done, then tests each role with a prototype before development starts. For SmartMoving it interviewed 30+ dispatchers, drivers, and clients, sorted 50+ operational tasks into three hubs, and built separate menus for sales, dispatch, and crew. For QONA’s banking app it designed distinct onboarding journeys for local members, foreign nationals, and returning users on one shared flow. For Soul Foods Group it built one role-based platform for restaurant staff, area managers, and leadership across four brands.
