Why hiring design usually goes wrong

Agencies bill by the hour

Open-ended hourly contracts mean the final number is a guess. Layers of account managers add weeks before anyone opens Figma.

Marketplaces are a lottery

Every new freelancer means re-explaining your brand from scratch and hoping the quality holds up this time.

Design and build are split

A designer hands off a file, a developer rebuilds it from scratch, and half the detail is lost in translation.

One team. Design and build. Fixed price.

You work directly with the founder from first sketch to deployed code — no hand-offs, no re-explaining your brand, no hourly meter running.

What clients say

I have been working with Faizan for over 8 years now and he’s my main go-to designer for all sorts of projects. He’s very creative, reliable, fast, and pays great attention to details. I highly recommend you work with him on any of your design or development projects.

Long-term client · 8+ years working together

Faizan is the most professional and creative designer I worked with. He gets your ideas even without any mockups or drawing. I provide a concept and he is able to produce what I expected. I strongly recommend Faizan to anyone who is looking for fast and quality designs.

He is the BEST and I am not saying this lightly, I’ve dealt with so many designers — this guy is the best of them all.

Verified client review

Perfect, brilliant design! Professional and exactly what I’ve been looking for.
