UI/UX Design developers can build from
Smart-UI designs web and mobile product interfaces, starting from research and user flows rather than screens. Projects typically run 2 to 8 weeks and are handed over as design systems with build-ready specifications.
What does Smart-UI design?
Smart-UI designs web and mobile product interfaces, starting from research and user flows rather than screens. Deliverables are design systems and clickable prototypes, handed over with specifications the engineers can build from directly.
Design and development sit in the same team, so what is designed is what gets built.
| Engagement models | Fixed-price project or retainer |
|---|---|
| Typical duration | Typically 2-8 weeks |
| Team shape | 1-2 designers |
| Stack | Figma, design systems, prototyping |
| Markets served | United Kingdom, United States, Australia, European Union |
Figma, and what has to be in the file
Design is handed over as a Figma file with components, spacing tokens, every state drawn, and the empty and error screens included. That is the difference between a design that ships and a design that gets reinterpreted in code. Prototypes for user testing, and motion specified in Lottie or GSAP where it carries meaning.
Core UI / UX design Services
What a design engagement covers, from research through to the file the engineers build from.
Custom UI/UX Design
Interfaces designed around the task somebody came to do, with the states that task actually produces: loading, empty, partial, failed, and far too much data.
User Research & Personas
Interviews and session recordings instead of assumptions, run with the number of users needed to see the pattern rather than as a research phase with no end.
Wireframing & Prototyping
Low-fidelity flows first, so the argument about structure happens before a week has gone into visual detail. Clickable prototypes for testing with real users.
Interaction & Animation Design
Motion used to show what changed and where it came from, specified in Lottie or GSAP so engineering implements it rather than approximating it.
Responsive Design
Every screen drawn at the sizes it will really be used at, with the rules for what stacks, what collapses and what gets dropped written down rather than left to interpretation.
Usability Testing & Optimization
Watching people use it and counting where they stop. Findings come back as a ranked list with the fix attached, not as a report to be read later.
Visual Design
Type, colour and spacing chosen for hierarchy and contrast first. Colour pairs checked against WCAG contrast ratios rather than picked and hoped for.
Design System & Style Guide
Components, tokens and usage rules in one place, so the tenth screen looks like the first and a new designer can start without a briefing.
UI/UX Audits & Consultation
A pass over an existing product against the tasks it is meant to support, returning a prioritised list of what to change, what to leave, and what is costing conversions.
Collaboration with Development Teams
Staying with your engineers through the build, answering what the file cannot, and reviewing the result against the design rather than signing off on a screenshot.

Send the screens and what a user is meant to accomplish on them. A fixed-price estimate and a plan come back within 48 hours.
Frequently Asked Questions
We start with discovery (user research, competitor analysis, user flows), move to wireframes, then high-fidelity Figma prototypes. We validate designs with stakeholder reviews before handing off to development.
Yes. All our designs are mobile-first and responsive. We also design native iOS and Android app interfaces when required, following platform-specific design guidelines (HIG and Material Design).
Yes. Redesigns are a significant part of our work. We conduct a UX audit of the existing product, identify friction points and conversion blockers, then design an improved version - often in phases to minimise disruption.
Yes. For larger projects we deliver a full Figma design system with component library, typography, colour tokens, spacing, and interaction guidelines. This ensures consistency across your product as it grows.
