Team SoloMid — The House Where the Game Lives
Team SoloMid is a professional esports organization based in the United States. Today TSM has several teams for all the hottest online games.
Their new idea is to build a Gaming Facility – a cool place where players and fans can work, play and hang out.
The building will have everything: from a cafeteria and fitness gym to Content Studio, Streaming Rooms and Wellness Clinic.
Website under construction
TSM needed a website that would tell investors and future visitors about the Facility and at the same time become a virtual advertising platform for the sponsors.
But since the building was still under construction, they did not have real photos: only construction plans and renderings.
In the image and likeness
Inspired by the holographic game interfaces, we decided to create lifelike rooms for our future website. But it wasn’t that easy.
First, the original three-dimensional building models turned out to be too detailed, and therefore their display in the browser was too resource-intensive.
And secondly, the number of polygon lines was too large, so when they crossed – guess what? – right, all turned into a mess.
Real virtuality
In order to preserve the artistic image and at the same time to optimize the engine, we simplified all the rooms and in some cases even redrew them from scratch.
Follow Me
The most engaging part was to create an easy navigation that would lead the user through all the rooms, from one floor to another, without unnecessary transitions.

IPglobal.net

Singular – Complex Object
Singular is an established brand in the iGaming industry providing the full spectrum of iGaming and omnichannel solutions. It was founded in 2009 in Georgia, but now they already have several offices around the world.
The task sounded familiar – to update the company's website. But in fact, more was expected from us: to highlight main product areas, not forgetting about the company's vision.
So, we decided to put complex three-dimensional figures assembled from various pieces at the center of the concept. Such a visual approach echoes the Singular brand, because both in our design and in Singular everyday work there is a huge amount of details that make up unique and beautiful products-solutions. The overall geometric and clean direction can be traced through the entire website.

The 8760: the WOWest of the WOW
A flashy website to highlight unique creative yet technologically advanced approaches to marketing and growth-hacking of a super modern marketing agency. This was the time when we needed to intentionally go crazy and creative.
Surprise the industry
The biggest challenge was to create a WOW-site for the industry where a WOW was a norm. And at the same time, we wanted to keep the website smooth and lag-less.
Be personal
The best inspiration always comes from talking to the founders and getting to know them.
We asked about everything – from musical preferences (techno and electro) to their intense, workaholic pace of life, edginess, straightness, and bold marketing and PR moves, which actually brought them to success.
Using the gyro
So, ladies and gentlemen, meet the creative highlight of this project that helped us implement the vision, complete the task and resolve the challenge.
We managed to breach the gap between the web and the real world by tying website animation to a natural biological interface which is a human hand via using gyro as a proxy.
Code-based motion graphics
The process was also unique. Instead of traditional designer-handcrafted visuals, we went for code-based motion graphics, created by a developer under the supervision of a designer.
We used 3d shapes and Voronoi diagram tessellations to create the effect of a moving network.
Aside from the fact that The8760 team keeps getting random compliments for the website, we also won a bunch of trophies, the biggest of which was User’s choice Mobile Site of The Year from Awwwards.

WIO: when animation assists the tech
WIO is a cloud-based Wi-Fi platform that self-heals, infinitely scales, and creates new revenue, all while providing fast and reliable wireless internet. As wireless technology continues to evolve, service providers must keep up.
Simply put
The most intriguing part of this project was the topic itself – it turned out pretty technical and complex for us.
The website had to contain a lot of information with heavy schemas and the client wanted it to become approachable, friendly and easy.
Color and motion
To make everything clear to the average user and to separate 5 main product families, we introduced the color-coding system.
To offset the side of the WIO’s business and to make it cozy & friendly we stuffed the website with tons of animations and other visuals in a juicy yet soft color scheme.
As almost every of WIO’s services & solutions is tailor-made & unique, we decided to make them abstract enough for everyone to see exactly what they may need.
Timeless classics: ‘Before-after effect’
The visual twist in this case was meant to show how WIO’s products actually solve their customers’ pains.
To reach this goal as clearly as possible we used two-state before-after animations.
Research, research and research again
Designing WIO was a classic textbook process, but the “fun” part was that we had to spend more time on research than on actual design.
But no worries, we are exactly the geeks who managed it to understand WIO’s product and to present it to potential clients in an understandable and friendly manner.

Huru backpack: Online shop
Huru brand concept stands for nullifying limitations — it's a premium quality backpack suitable for tourism and everyday use.

We used graphics and animations to add up to the story, to give allusions to the ways the backpack can be used: boat, sea, mountains and dynamic city life.

We were tasked with designing the platform itself and a landing page to present and sell the platform features.
Keep it simple
We needed a visual structure and navigation that would allow the user to easily get around multiplicity of available functions.
Platform for all ages
To make the interface familiar and easy-to-use we found the most comfortable combination of fonts, contrasts and spacing, and built intuitive navigation to accommodate the needs of users of all ages, sexes and nationalities.
Soft and cozy
How to make a generally corporate office-oriented product soft and cozy?
We managed to develop an understandable and user-friendly shell that made Family.net suitable and desirable for family use.
Screens, screens, screens
More than 250 screens and screen states were created for desktop version only. On top of that we produced more than 100 additional screens for the mobile version.

Web & Logo Design for FinTech Firm
“They gave me guidance to make the site’s UX higher quality.”
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the founder of SonderSpot, a fintech firm.
What challenge were you trying to address with Bachoo Design Studio?
We needed help with web and logo design for a client of ours.
What was the scope of their involvement?
First, they developed milestones. We estimated everything so there wouldn’t be surprises. I had high demands for the project for my client. They agreed that all the designs would be animated and would be done in a way that would allow compliance with the key requirements.
We set them up in accordance to the industry standards. After I gave them the input with content, they were able to use the references that I provided them with and they delivered the design for mobile, desktop, and rebranding of the logo. They designed the site using Notion and Gif images from the website that I liked.
They provided style guides, templates for emails, and icon sets for smaller pieces of the design language. These pieces could be used in the future by the client should they decide to expand their website and the branding in the future for growing their business without needing additional work from Bachoo Design Studio or other professional design studios.
For example, on the website, we have the current exchange rate. Each currency is represented by two flags. They were kind enough to provide all the flags for future currencies that might be added. They took a proactive step to figure it out. They gave more than I would have thought of myself.
What is the team composition?
I worked with their chief identity specialist. There was also the co-founder, a designer, and a project manager.
How did you come to work with Bachoo Design Studio?
We looked at different Ukrainian web design studios and, after thorough research, we chose Bachoo Design Studio.
How much have you invested with them?
We spent $26,000.
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in November 2020, and we wrapped up in January 2021.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
The client really loves the work that they’ve done. They hired my firm until the end of the year on a retainer. I was very pleased with the general style and availability of options to develop on top of that style and the longevity of the final work. I also measured it based on how much it looks to industry leading websites that I liked and how well they were able to execute based on briefing. The metrics on the design were how well the design could be used on several devices. All in all, my hopes were met.
How did Bachoo Design Studio perform from a project management standpoint?
It was really easy to integrate my project management with what they were creating. I was very happy with the fact that they were using the best stacks in terms of communication with clients. We also used Slack. They were able to help me out where I was lagging in my project management skills.
It was very pleasant working with their project manager and designer. The fact we both speak Russian helped. All the documentation was done in English because the client is an international company. I had access to Figma where they were working and was able to see them work live at any point in time and communicate the work to my clients. They were available every hour of the working day.
What did you find most impressive about them?
Their work on illustrations and smaller details stands out. We could clearly see they had additional help from an illustrator and not just a web designer. I really like the personal touch they added. They gave me guidance on which aspects of my input to make clearer in order for them to make the site’s UX higher quality.
Are there any areas they could improve?
No, I learned a bunch from them. I can’t say there’s anything I’d have them improve.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Hire them quickly. They might run out of free hands.

Branding, Web Design & Dev for E-Sports Co
"I’m most impressed by their flexibility to work on any project with me."
the reviewer
the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the director of design and digital at two companies: TSM and Blitz App. TSM is the most lucrative e-sports team in North America. Blitz App does statistics and analytics for e-sports.
What challenge were you trying to address with Bachoo Design Studio?
Bachoo has helped with both companies. For our first project together, I needed a marketing website for the opening of a facility in LA.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Bachoo initially created a marketing website for the launch of our $50 million facility. They used WebGL. Since then, their team has taken on various design and development projects.
Bachoo branded our new talent agency, which is our portfolio of e-sports influencers. Their team created our brand, logo, and website. In addition, they created our visual style, pitch decks, and messaging.
We also worked together to rebrand TSM’s website and shop on Shopify. Their team used React and modified graphics based on our current look to bring cohesion to the website. For Blitz App, they rebranded the website and helped with brand positioning. They also worked on another marketing website for another company using React.
What is the team composition?
About a year and a half ago, they had eight people working on the project. For the past several months, six people including developers worked on our projects. However, I mainly work with Elena (Founder, Owner & Chief of Production), Gala (Senior Designer), and Marina (Lead Project Manager).
How did you come to work with Bachoo Design Studio?
I reached out to Bachoo because I liked their style. I vetted a bunch of agencies but liked how understanding Elena was. As we’re both designers, it was easy for us to communicate. They also gave the impression that their team could make my life easier.
How much have you invested with them?
I’ve spent about $60,000 on their services so far.
What is the status of this engagement?
I’m still working with them and started working with them in August 2019.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
I generally measure the success of our engagements according to my visual and development standards. Their team builds quality products with analytical integrations, which is helpful. They implement designs and technologies well. Their team’s also flexible. I can give them any project and they’ll execute it in two-week sprints. It’s very helpful.
How did Bachoo Design Studio perform from a project management standpoint?
At first, project management was a little rocky. They had a different project manager at the time, and now their project management’s well done. Their team provides estimates and deadlines. They’re responsive, professional, flexible. I can send them work the weekend before a deadline and they’ll help me.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m most impressed by their flexibility to work on any project with me. For one project, I said yes to the client before I even talked with Bachoo. They immediately jumped into the project and did a great job. I know that I always have someone to take on projects for me, which is so helpful.
Are there any areas they could improve?
They could do better during the specification process. This is only because I run a product development team. Their team could advance the project description process. That’s partly because they aren’t terribly familiar with e-sports and gaming. More client research could help the design process.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Come with examples. Be transparent about your budget and expectations because they’re flexible and honest.

I loved their quality, turnaround, politeness, and creativity.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Not really honestly.

the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m a UX designer at a FinTech startup. We have an app that provides financial services to customers in Brazil. I work on the product team, collaborating with them to design new features, develop research protocols, audit older features, and identify areas for improvement.
What challenge were you trying to address with Bachoo Design Studio?
We hired Bachoo Design Studio to build an MVP for our product. We didn’t have the resources to hire an internal design team, so we decided to partner with a group that could design our app from the ground up. Our goal was to make financial services available to Brazilians who may not have access to a traditional bank because of credit history or other issues.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Bachoo Design Studio designed the UI/UX for the app we have now. They completed a variety of design work, including UX flows, UI development, and interaction designs. The team guides our engineers through the implementation process with each of their designs.
The app they designed is essentially a digital wallet that lets users pay bills, make purchases, manage their finances, and complete other tasks that banks typically handle. Their team is planning to roll out more robust banking and financial features before the end of this year.
What is the team composition?
We work primarily with one of the co-founders of Bachoo Design Studio. We check in with her regularly, and she is always present when we need to make tough decisions. We also work with a senior designer who interfaces with our engineers to build features and supervise implementation.
How did you come to work with Bachoo Design Studio?
I’m not sure how we initially found Bachoo Design Studio, but we’ve continued to work with them primarily because of their senior designer.
What is the status of this engagement?
Our company began working with Bachoo Design Studio in the fall of 2017, and our partnership is ongoing.
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
Without Bachoo Design Studio, we wouldn’t have a product. We’ve greatly benefitted from working with their experienced designers, especially as a young startup.
Users have told us that the app is very intuitive, and that is entirely a result of Bachoo Design Studio’s work. We’re currently in a phase of high growth, and we’re expecting that our user base will increase as we continue to release new features.
How did Bachoo Design Studio perform from a project management standpoint?
We’ve managed the overall project from our end through setting timelines, giving requirements, and coordinating with engineers, many of whom are subcontractors. In terms of Bachoo Design Studio’s internal project management, I’ve always felt comfortable with their ability to allocate their resources and complete tasks on time.
We typically communicate through Slack at least daily, and our designer will use Slack to message our engineers directly. We also use Confluence to record and comment on documentation. We schedule meetings through Google Calendar and hold meetings on Google Hangouts and Zoom. We’ve moved from an ad hoc meeting schedule to having conversations at least twice a week.
What did you find most impressive about them?
They’re incredibly efficient and exceptionally hardworking. Their team is also reliable, trustworthy, and reachable, all of which are important traits for a partner that is located in a different country.
In terms of their design capabilities, I’ve been very impressed by their senior designer. She’s extremely thoughtful and conscientious, frequently looking at the whole flow of the product while executing discrete visual design specifications. She also gives regular feedback and asks great questions. We’ve benefitted from her unique point of view, especially when we’ve had to make important decisions about the direction of our product. At times, she’s acted like more of an employee than an external partner.
Are there any areas they could improve?
I don’t think I have any constructive feedback. When you’re working with a proficient team like Bachoo Design Studio, everything becomes easier, and you don’t have to worry as much.
If anything, it would be great if they were more vocal and assertive. They have valuable opinions and excellent design insights, and I’d love to see them push back against our management team during higher level conversations. With a contractor relationship, that can be very difficult to navigate, but they have the expertise regarding UI and product design.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I’m the CEO of SabreCMS. We provide a platform on which people can design a website or e-commerce store of their own.
For what projects/services did your company hire Bachoo Design Studio?
Our current UX/UI and web design were out of touch with what our platform had grown to be. The feedback we received pointed toward mismatches in everything from our logo to the graphics on our corporate website.
What were your goals for this project?
We wanted a design and look and feel that appealed mostly to developers and agencies, but also inspire dtrust in end-users visiting our site. The logo had to communicate our passion for creation.
How did you select this vendor?
My team reached out to several agencies and freelancers to hear their thoughts and ideas about a rebrand and redesign. From our first email contact, Bachoo demonstrated a high level of professionalism. Ultimately, we felt they understood our vision and DNA best.
Describe the project in detail.
Initially, Bachoo proposed a large number of new logos, ranging from sketches to more complete drawings. We iterated those designs and discussed the pros/cons of their meanings with our designers. After we arrived at a logo we felt signaled everything we wanted, they designed our entire web experience. They solicited our input throughout the process, but we had little corrective feedback to give. Their work captured everything we hoped to express.
What was the team composition?
We worked with an account manager who was engaged and competent. They connected us with both project managers and designers.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Customers, colleagues, and investors complimented us on our new design days after it launched. Lead-generation has picked up significantly since the launch, though other factors have contributed to this as well.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
They’re highly effective and communicate clearly and efficiently. We enjoyed their process immensely and saw almost daily progress.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
Their level of friendliness and professionalism was outstanding. They managed to produce great results and enjoy their work.
Are there any areas for improvement?
No, not that I saw. They couldn’t have performed better than they did.
Bachoo Design Studio’s work was met with high praise from the third party; Now, their client is on retainer until the end of the year. The finished product met all design success metrics and the team was pleasant to collaborate with. Their attention to illustration details sets them apart.
