Process

We have a simple yet integrated process. Our process starts by knowing that every client program is unique, understanding theirs needs, getting the insight from who knows best, that is why we have a great process that is time-proven and highly effective to deliver life changing design. Through intensive design research and strategic analysis, Dip gains insight into customers, competitors, client brand, and key opportunities, them we produce a wide range of design approaches and concepts to full fill our client’s challenge. The concepts are them reviewed, tested, refined, and sculpted into a unique design direction. After the design stage is accomplished we start documenting, and delivering project details to the client for implementation, or we get directly involved in the production process, both ways guarantee the precise interpretation of ideas into reality.
