Akko (“Ah-Koh”) is named after a city on the Mediterranean.

 
It’s a place that lies at the convergence of geography, cultures and resources, one that maintains a sense of identity while always keeping an open ear and evolving with the people that inhabit it over centuries. There is no single formula for great design. Design changes with new technologies, shifting tastes, liquid cultures and the unique fingerprint of both its architects and its audience.
 

We’re innovation partners.

 
There’s nothing worse than having a cool idea and not knowing what to do with it. Or thinking your problem is one thing when it’s actually another. The folks at Akko have lived and breathed many facets of design and technology over the years and we’re always learning. Web, mobile, TV, devices, things that don’t even have a name yet. Even good old paper. We will work with you to ask smart questions, create the right plan for the project, and stay flexible throughout the process. And since we make our own products as well, we probably feel your pain.
 

We’re practical people.

 
We’re jargon-free and we’re flexible in our process. Strategic design thinking doesn’t have to mean bloated PowerPoints or esoteric methods (though yeah, we like to have fun).  We’ll take you down just the right path in a way that makes sense to you, whether it’s end-to-end product design or a heartfelt promotional piece for your cool new thing. Some things we like to do:
 

User Experience Design

User research, personas, storyboards, scenarios, workflows & wireframes, information architecture, interaction design & specification
 

Visual Design & Identity

interface design, graphic design for digital and print, brand strategy, logo design, style guides, motion graphics & video, iconography & illustration, copywriting
 

We don’t judge.

 
We’ve worked with all shapes and sizes, from Fortune 500 companies to one-person startups.
