User research
Interviews, observation, and usability testing with the people who use the software daily.

Why Choose Softonoma for UI/UX Design
The most expensive design decisions get made in meetings with no users in the room. We test flows with the people who'll actually use them, then let the findings settle the argument instead of the loudest voice.
UI/UX Design Services We Provide
Four kinds of design work, from understanding your users to handing engineers something buildable.
Information architecture
Information architecture and flows worked out before anyone opens a design tool.
Prototyping and testing
Interactive prototypes tested with real users, then revised until the friction is gone.
Design systems
Design systems with states, specs, and tokens engineers can build against directly.
UI/UX Design
What is UI/UX design?
UI/UX design is two disciplines working together. UX decides what the product should do and in what order the flows, the structure, and the decisions a user makes along the way. UI decides how it looks and responds. Skipping the first and starting with the second is the most common reason a redesign fails to change any numbers.
When Your Product Needs a UX Audit
Every product accumulates screens that made sense to whoever added them. Users take longer than they should, support answers the same question weekly, and the team argues about preferences because nobody has data. Research replaces those arguments with evidence, usually within two weeks.
UI/UX Design Cost
Discovery is fixed-price and produces a costed estimate. Research depth moves the number more than screen count five user interviews and a round of usability testing cost less than rebuilding a flow that turned out to be wrong.
Design Tools and Handover Format
Figma for design and prototyping, with tokens and components structured so front-end engineers can read them directly. Research is run with whatever tooling fits the users, including in person when that's where the work happens.
How Long UI/UX Design Takes
A focused design engagement runs four to eight weeks — research, flows, prototypes, and a tested design ready to build. Larger products run alongside development, with designs staying a sprint ahead of the engineers.
Design, front-end, or the whole product?
Design decides what the interface should be. Front-end development builds it. Web and mobile applications are the products it goes into. Design without engineering stays a file, and engineering without design ships someone's best guess.

From User Research to Buildable Design
How questions about your users become designs engineers can build without guessing.
01
Discovery
We interview and observe your users before proposing a single screen.
02
Planning
Information architecture and flows agreed before visual design starts.
03
Design
Prototypes tested with real users, iterated until the friction is gone.
04
Handover
A design system with specs and states, not a folder of flat images.

UI/UX Design FAQs
Still have questions?
Talk to an engineerDo you do user research, or just visual design?
Both, and the research comes first. Visual design without research is decoration it can make a product look better while leaving every reason people struggle with it exactly where it was.
What do we get at handover?
A Figma file with components, tokens, and every state specified loading, empty, error, disabled. Plus the research findings, so the reasoning behind each decision survives after we hand it over.
Can you work with our existing brand?
Yes. Most engagements start with an existing brand and work within it. Where the brand actively works against usability, we say so and show the evidence rather than redesigning around you.
