taikonauten
Taikonauten is a digital studio based in Berlin. They describe themselves as 'The Internet is our universe, We are creating his matter by enriching it with the products of our customers. We conceive, design design and develop digital experience that, mobile apps and individual online software solutions in open sites, We focus on maximum performance and high usability. Our developments offer the most efficient conversion for your users added value and for our clients.'.
I really enjoyed the fact that taikonauten play on the concept of universe, using it as a design feature across their site and it also impales that the customer is always the centre of the process.
A lot of their work is digitally based around app and mobile developments. This sort of work inspires me to work harder to try and get an internship there in the summer. As well as UX they also work along side developers who code up the apps within mobile devices. Seeing this has inspired me to think about building upon what little knowledge of coding I have. Having an understanding of HTML and CSS isn't enough to code an app so in the summer this will be on my to-do list.
More Sleep
More Sleep is a digital design agency based in Berlin, they sum themselves up by expressing that they "believe that our work is the best way to get to know us. But each project is different. And so are we. As different as our creative process is, everything we do is about long term thinking, more fun and MoreSleep." More Sleep having creatively used their identity as a running theme through their branding and in their work. Their name 'More Sleep' implies a work hard attitude and the harder you work the 'more sleep' is the outcome.
Their work style is very modern and contemporary, they mainly focus on UX and coffee it seems. They have worked with big clients, such as Adidas and other big name, creating digital experience from mobile app creation and story telling.
yourlocalstudio
Your Local Studio, even though they are partially a digital studio, the user journey on their website is awful. They have no 'about page' or any form of navigation so anyone who visits their page would be clueless to what they are viewing and that person could be a potential client. However, moving away from their poor site usability. From their site they appear to be a multi-disciplinary studio from Copenhagen, who services include, digital, print, branding and app development.
The biggest aspect that impressed me so much was their style. The studio have embraces the contemporary trends of graphic design by clearly implementing it within their work. However, they still know how to effectively design a site for a other sectors that wouldn't benefit from contemporary trends . Knowing the boundaries, you need to decide whether the brands ethos and what they stand for haven't been over shadowed by trends. (if that makes any sense)
superherocheesecake
The first thing I noticed about this studio is the winning spirit they convey in all parts of their website. The way they describe themselves is very inspiring and up lifting. They confidently say 'We’re damn proud of every line of code and every pixel we deliver. In order to achieve greatness your process needs to be rock solid. We have the following in-house skills that can be observed in our sexy office.' What more can you say about that? a confident studio will only make themselves seem like a studio who know what there talking about and that's something potential clients look for.
Super Hero Cheese Cake are an award-winning creative digital production studio from Amsterdam. Their team consists of UX designers, visual designers, developers and digital producers. Their work is generally amazing, they used a lot of illustrations in their projects but this could be due to the clients and the kind of work that's been asked of them as they have created a lot of gaming apps. This means that they're heavily involved with animation and coding by the look of their recent projects. As I've said in previous blog posts I want to develop my coding and animation skills and applying for an internship at Super Hero Cheese Cake will absolutely benefit me greatly. Its about how to impress them enough to give me a chance. However, If the internship isn't paid then I'm screwed.
