About Akendi

Market success relies on the ability to turn a great business idea into a compelling experience. To make an idea work in the hands of users, customers and clients businesses must understand all of their stakeholders and user groups. This is the foundation for our experience design process.

User and Design Research: the first stage of our process starts with user and design research. We observe, capture and analyze the experience from all stakeholder angles: the business, the end user and the customer. This allows us to inform the design with business, functional and user requirements that are based on information that goes well beyond a gut feeling.
Brand Experience Design Sketching Interaction Design
     
Experience Design: we use our background in human factors, interactive design, brand and industrial design to create compelling experiences. Our techniques embed the input from stakeholders (including customers and users) to sketch, design and specify complete products and services. End to end.
