When you design a product, like it or not it but takes a personality with it’s users. We are relational beings and we create emotional connections to the products we use regularly. This means we feel certain ways about our phone, our email app, our car and the bank we use.
Like humans, products can make a good or a bad first impression. A product can come accross as interesting or boring, respectful or rude, it can inspire trust or confusion.
Permanent linkHuggable is a term we use to describe the type of design work we aim to produce at Hug™.
A hug is an intimate way of expressing emotions and indicates familiarity, love, affection and friendship. A huggable design is one that goes an extra mile to put a smile on your face.
Our goal at Hug™ is to help our clients improve the experience on their apps and websites. We do it by focusing on the emotional side of the design, with colors, illustrations and strategies meant to give your product a human personality.
We will be accepting work in a few months.
