Discovery & Design Direction

Before committing to design or build, we offer a short paid discovery phase that brings clarity, alignment and confidence.

Discovery is a standalone piece of work designed to reduce risk, align stakeholders and create a clear foundation for delivery — whether that’s with us or another partner.

Gain clarity before committing to design or build

Clarify goal, users & challenges

Reduce Risk

Make informed decisions

A focussed process designed to stand on its own

Discovery includes:

  • Clarification of goals, users and success measures

  • Homepage and services page wireframes

  • Visual design direction (tone, mood and principles)

  • Lightweight moodboard (colour, typography, imagery)

  • Brand personality spectrum for stakeholder alignment

  • Clear recommendations for next steps

What you get

  • A shared understanding of the problem to solve

  • Clear structure and direction before design begins

  • Reduced rework, faster delivery and better outcomes

  • A tangible asset you can reuse internally

How it works

  • Discovery typically runs over 2–3 weeks and is delivered as a fixed, clearly scoped piece of work. It’s designed to stand on its own, with no obligation to proceed into build.

Is discovery right for you?

  • Discovery works best if you:

    • Want to make informed decisions before investing further

    • Have multiple stakeholders to align

    • Need clarity before committing to design or development
