OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Lumi Studio?

We needed help with the UX/UI design and development of our app.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Lumi Studio worked collaboratively with us on some existing wireframes and enhanced them with their own to ensure the final UX of the app. The team also helped with the engineering of the first version of our app. Lumi Studio worked with us on a prototype early on in the project so we could test it as they were building it and see the progress.

What is the team composition?

We worked with 2–5 members of Lumi Studio’s team.

How did you come to work with Lumi Studio?

We found them through an online search. We chose them because their pricing fit our budget, they were a great culture fit, and their company values aligned with ours.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from February 2026–June 2026.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Lumi Studio delivered the project on time.

How did Lumi Studio perform from a project management standpoint?

We communicated via virtual meetings.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Our app is in a niche field, but Lumi Studio was able to put themselves in the shoes of our users and suggest effective UX and technical improvements.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t think of anything for Lumi Studio to improve.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Incredibly efficient, accurate and timely with responses. Anything that had a delay or an issue with delivery was raised well before the estimated date of completion and prioritsed and adjusted for appropriately.

What was your primary form of communication with Lumi Design?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Creativity and knowledge, they intuitively understood the problem to be solved and didn't simply build exactly what we asked (though they would have if we requested it), instead making sure that the service we were going to provide actually solved the market problem.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Lumi Design could have done differently?

A little more hands on with helping support areas where we lacked knowledge or the ability to make good decisions, but that was a minimal issue, there are just some services where we were unable to know what the right choice is through lack of knowledge,experience and a little more hand holding would have been nice. However if anything that was simply a failing in our knowledge/approach more than their ability, given that we were starting a business, that always sparks some anxiety around decision making and that is not in any way reflective of their actual delivery on those things.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the COO of a platform to enable rapid decarbonisation retrofits.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Lumi Design?

We were having trouble getting an understanding of our MVP and what we needed to build over the next 3 months. We wanted to get a clear picture of the proof of concept a draft product roadmap for the proof of concept.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I met a member of Lumi at a Climate Innovation Tech conference and we decided to pursue working together.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

The team took us through a whole design sprint condensed into a week. They started off with expert interviews and asking lots of 'how might we?' questions and prioritised these into the most important features for our MVP. They then asked us about our bigger picture plans and the biggest risks to achieving these we were facing right now. Then they delivered lightening demos of similar products that inspired them. Then they created the initial wireframes, got our feedback and refined them. Throughout, they asked us for constant feedback and also conducted interviews with our customers.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

3 people ran the design sprint, 2 were founders of the company and 1 was a product designer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We were absolutely delighted with the outcomes of the sprint. Lumi delivered everything we had hoped for and more, as they also taught us about the product development methodology they had employed and pushed us to prioritise features and our ideas. Our customers loved the wireframes and off the back of them, we are much closer to moving some customers towards paying for our MVP.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Everyone on the Lumi team was brilliant to work with and very communicative. They managed our expectations throughout and let us know if there were any changes to their timings. They went above and beyond in their support.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their ability to understand a complex underlying technology and a brand new industry was insane. We were blown away by how they took all the complexity we threw at them and delivered intuitive wireframes.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

During the preparation for the sprint, we were a little unclear exactly what they wanted to get out of the conversations with our customers. This could have been better, but was all fine in the end.
