Revolutionising parenting
in Abu Dhabi

The brief was a school finder. What parents actually needed was a companion, covering pregnancy through formal education. We reframed it, won the pitch, and shipped in 14 weeks.

Turning card data into
a hospitality experience

Chase knew everything about its Sapphire cardholders. Their hotels knew nothing. The gap between those two facts was the design problem.

Diagnosing a
retail giant

Six of six users chose Amazon over Carrefour at the same product and the same price. The reason was one piece of information Carrefour wasn't showing them.

What we do

Four disciplines / one team
/01

Strategy

Most design problems are strategy problems in disguise. Before anything is drawn, we work out what the thing is for and what would make it worth building. At ADEK, a strategic reframe won the pitch.

  • Positioning
  • Product definition
  • Pitch & roadmap
/02

Research

We run research to find the thing that changes direction, not to confirm what everyone already assumed. Six users, same product, same price, and a unanimous result that redrew a retail roadmap.

  • User interviews
  • Heuristic & benchmark audit
  • Usability testing
/03

Design

Interface, identity, and the systems that keep them coherent across platforms, languages, and years. Nothing added without purpose.

  • Product UI
  • Brand identity
  • Design systems
/04

Development

We ship what we design. Mobile, web, and the AI architecture underneath, with engineering, product and design working the same problem at the same time.

  • Flutter · React
  • Java · Python
  • RAG & AI systems
