UI/UX Design

Interfaces that convert

Beautiful is not enough. We design interfaces grounded in research, validated by users, and built to convert. Wireframes, prototypes, design systems – every decision serves a reason.

Good UI/UX is invisible. When users glide through your product without thinking, when conversion goes up without you knowing why, when support tickets drop – that's design that works. Aesthetics matter, but they're a side effect of solving the right problems for the right people.

At 82 Design, we don't start with screens – we start with questions. Who uses this? What are they trying to accomplish? Where do they get stuck? Then we design with intent: wireframes that map flow, prototypes that validate ideas, design systems that scale, and interfaces that pass real usability tests.

The full design process

🔍

User Research

Stakeholder interviews, audience analysis, competitor audits, analytics review. We understand who you're designing for before drawing a single pixel.

📐

Wireframes & IA

Information architecture, sitemaps, low-fidelity wireframes. We map user flows and screen structure before visual design – cheap to change at this stage.

🖱️

Interactive Prototypes

Clickable Figma prototypes that feel real. Stakeholders click through them, users test them, devs reference them. Decisions made on real interaction, not static mockups.

🎨

Design System

Component library, design tokens, spacing rules, typography scale. A single source of truth that scales with your product and keeps your team consistent.

🧪

Usability Testing

Real users, real tasks, real feedback. We run moderated and unmoderated tests, identify friction, and iterate – before launch, not after support tickets.

Accessibility

WCAG 2.1 AA compliance built in: color contrast, keyboard navigation, screen reader semantics, focus states. Designed for everyone, not just the average user.

From research to handoff

01

Discovery & Research

Stakeholder interviews to understand business goals. User research – interviews, surveys, analytics review – to understand audience needs and pain points. Competitor analysis to identify gaps and opportunities. Output: a research document that informs every design decision.

02

Information Architecture & Wireframes

Sitemaps, user flows, and low-fidelity wireframes. We map every screen and every connection before any visual styling. This is where the heavy thinking happens – and where changes cost the least.

03

Visual Design & Prototyping

High-fidelity screens with your brand applied. We build interactive Figma prototypes covering primary flows. You can click through them as if they were the real product. Iteration based on your feedback.

04

Usability Testing & Iteration

We test the prototype with 5-8 real users matching your target audience. Identify friction, confusion, abandoned tasks. Iterate the design until users complete tasks naturally. Cheaper to fix in design than in code.

05

Design System & Handoff

A complete component library with design tokens, spacing scale, typography rules, and reusable components. Devs get clean Figma files, exported assets, and detailed specs. Documentation included so your team can extend the system later.

What sets our design apart

👥

User-first, not designer-first

We don't design for our portfolio. We design for your users. Every decision is justified by research and validated by testing – not by what looks trendy on Dribbble.

📊

Data-driven, not opinion-driven

When stakeholders disagree, we don't argue – we test. A/B testing, usability sessions, analytics deep-dives. Decisions backed by data, not by who has the loudest voice in the room.

🧩

Systems that scale

We build design systems, not one-off screens. Components, tokens, spacing rules. When you need a new feature in 6 months, your team builds it consistently – without calling us back.

Accessible by default

WCAG 2.1 AA isn't an afterthought we bolt on at the end. Color contrast, keyboard navigation, screen reader semantics, focus indicators – all baked into the design from day one.

Things people usually ask

UX (User Experience) is about how it works – flows, structure, logic, hierarchy of information. UI (User Interface) is about how it looks – colors, typography, spacing, visual style. Good products need both. Great UX with terrible UI feels broken; great UI with terrible UX is a beautiful trap. We do both, in that order – UX first, UI second.
Frameworks give you components, not decisions. They don't tell you which information to show first, how to structure a flow, or why your conversion is dropping at step 3. A template can make a screen look fine; only a designer can make a product work. If your project is simple (basic landing, blog), templates are great. For anything with real user flows or business logic, you need design thinking.
We define metrics before design starts: conversion rate, task completion rate, time-on-task, error rate, drop-off points. After launch, we measure against baseline. Real example: redesigned a checkout, conversion went from 2.3% to 4.1% in 6 weeks. We don't claim every project will hit those numbers, but we always set targets and track them.
Yes, and we'd start with a UX audit: heuristic evaluation, analytics deep-dive, user interviews, usability testing on the current product. Then we identify the highest-impact problems – usually 5-10 things causing 80% of the friction. Redesign tackles those first. We don't redesign the whole thing just because it looks dated; we change what's broken and preserve what works.
Yes – iOS, Android, and cross-platform (React Native, Flutter). We follow platform conventions where it matters (iOS HIG, Material Design) but we're not slaves to them – your app should feel native and distinctly yours. Tablet, watch, and TV interfaces too if your product extends there.
