Method
Four stages, one loop.
You can come in at any point
01.
Before we design anything, we find out what's actually going on. Research, audits, workshops and stakeholder conversations: the unglamorous work that stops you building the wrong thing.
02.
Insight only matters once it becomes a decision. We turn research into strategy: a roadmap, a business case, a brief clear enough that nobody downstream is guessing.
03.
I stay involved as the plan becomes a working website, product or identity. Where specialist help is needed, we agree the people and scope, with me keeping the work connected to the original brief.
04.
I can stay involved after launch through retained direction, reviewing what’s working, adjusting the plan with you and feeding what we learn back into the next round of decisions.
Brands, websites and digital products that help people explore, connect and engage. Beatnik works with cultural organisations, tourism destinations, startups and sports brands, bringing strategy, design and technology together around what people need.
You work directly with me.
I’m David, the designer and consultant behind Beatnik. No account managers, no handoffs. I’m with you from the first conversation to launch, and I bring in trusted specialists when a project needs them.
