Nuo Pixel Solutions · Design & engineering since 2015
A useful first step.
A clear path to delivery.
Bring the idea, the workflow or the difficult part of an existing product. We help define the work, connect the right disciplines and shape an engagement you can evaluate before committing to the build.
Our work spans logo and visual identity, web design, complex applications, CRM, integrations and manufacturing interfaces. We bring the same care to the concept, the user experience and the system that must operate after launch.
What a clear engagement gives you
Decisions you can inspect.
Work you can use.
We agree responsibilities, fees and acceptance criteria around the actual project.

Choose the situation closest to yours
Find the right scope for your next step.
Select a starting point to see what we would clarify, what the first scope can produce and which work is relevant. Each path helps us define a useful starting engagement and prepare a proposal around the work you actually need.
Read the project paths below. The choice helps us suggest a starting point; it does not submit an inquiry.
New products & complex applications
Turn an idea into a reviewable first release.
A customer portal, artist workspace or business application needs a coherent model behind its screens. We begin with the people, the tasks and the rules that connect them, then plan the interface and engineering together.
When this is useful
Useful when you have an idea, a partial brief or a prototype, and need to establish the first valuable product scope. We can also assess an existing design before implementation.
How we approach it
We map roles, important journeys, records, permissions and integration boundaries. Wireframes and focused prototypes make uncertain interactions visible. Technical investigation addresses the questions that could change the architecture, such as offline work, file handling or device capabilities.
What the starting scope can produce
- Prioritized first-release scope and explicit exclusions
- Task flows, key interface states and appropriate prototype detail
- Initial data model, API boundaries and architecture decisions
- Acceptance scenarios and a phased implementation proposal
What to bring
A short description of who will use the product, what they need to do and any existing system it must connect with. A complete specification is not required for the first conversation.
Discovery and production development are defined scopes. We agree the depth of design and engineering, deliverables, fees and review points before starting. A prototype is identified clearly until the production work has been completed.
CRM, APIs & operational software
Make the records, responsibilities and handovers agree.
When work moves between spreadsheets, email and disconnected tools, the missing piece is often a clear workflow model. We help define the source of truth, the allowed transitions and the information each role needs.
When this is useful
Useful for custom CRMs, approval processes, account portals, file workflows and integrations. The right scope may be a focused extension to an existing platform or a more substantial application.
How we approach it
We follow a representative record from arrival to completion, including exceptions. We examine ownership, permissions, validation, API contracts and failure recovery. Where systems exchange data, we define stable identifiers, retries and duplicate prevention rather than assume every request succeeds.
What the starting scope can produce
- Workflow and responsibility map with meaningful record states
- Entity relationships and permission boundaries
- Integration contracts, ownership rules and recovery requirements
- A complete first delivery slice with testable acceptance criteria
What to bring
One difficult workflow, the systems it crosses and a redacted example of the information involved. Start with the problem that causes repeated confusion rather than a list of every possible feature.
We assess configuration, integration and custom development as separate options. Existing business data and production access are handled through agreed procedures. A new interface alone does not change the authority of the underlying systems.
Manufacturing & technical sales
Connect the request, the part and the review decision.
A quotation platform must do more than accept a file and display a number. We connect intake, part revisions, calculation assumptions and staff review so the software supports the way the manufacturer actually evaluates work.
When this is useful
Useful for machining RFQs, technical inquiry portals, instant estimate workflows and customer-facing part interfaces. The first version can automate a defined supported scope and route exceptions to a reviewer.
How we approach it
We examine representative quotations and the rules behind them. We define required inputs, supported conditions, revision relationships and the difference between an estimate and an approved quote. Upload, preview and analysis are treated as separate stages with clear status and access boundaries.
What the starting scope can produce
- RFQ journey and required input model
- Versioned quotation states and review/approval responsibilities
- Calculation-rule inventory and explicit manual-review triggers
- File-processing, integration and release requirements
What to bring
A few representative requests and quotations, with confidential information removed, plus the conditions that require engineering judgment. Pricing logic must be validated by the business that will use it.
A visual 3D preview does not establish manufacturability or a reliable price. We scope geometry analysis, calculation and ordering separately where needed, and make unsupported cases visible instead of generating a misleading automatic result.
Brand strategy, drawing & visual craft
Give the business a distinctive, usable visual identity.
We begin with what the brand should communicate and where it needs to work. Research, sketching and concept development lead into controlled vector refinement, lettering and an identity that can be applied consistently.
When this is useful
Useful for a new name, a considered logo redesign or a broader visual system. We can connect the work with illustration, graphic design, website presentation and templates for everyday communication.
How we approach it
We examine the audience, market and existing assets, then explore purposeful concept directions. We refine selected forms through proportion, optical balance, negative space and letter relationships. Application studies test the identity in the contexts that matter to the business.
What the starting scope can produce
- A shared brand brief and concept rationale
- Focused sketch and direction reviews
- Approved mark, lockups and appropriate color/background variations
- Organized production artwork and agreed usage guidance
What to bring
The business name, audience, existing identity if there is one, and the places the new identity needs to appear. We can help clarify the direction before a detailed brief exists.
We agree the number and depth of review stages, application studies and artwork deliverables. A logo wordmark, a complete typeface and a full visual identity are different scopes. Registration and legal clearance require their own appropriate review.
Web design, UI/UX & implementation
Make the offer clear and the next task easier.
A website needs to explain the business and support a useful inquiry. A product interface needs to make tasks, information and states understandable. We connect structure, wireframes and visual design with the implementation that must support them.
When this is useful
Useful for a business website, a manufacturing site, a redesign, an application dashboard or an implementation-ready UI/UX engagement. Brand work and development can be connected or scoped separately.
How we approach it
We establish page purpose or user journeys, then use realistic content and states to resolve hierarchy. The visual system coordinates typography, color, imagery and components. Responsive behavior, accessibility, editing needs and search foundations inform the design rather than arrive as unexplained requirements at handover.
What the starting scope can produce
- Sitemap or task-flow structure and prioritized page/screen scope
- Wireframes and interaction states for meaningful review
- Responsive visual direction and reusable component rules
- Implementation/CMS requirements and an appropriate launch checklist
What to bring
The current site or product, its intended users, existing brand assets and one important journey that needs improvement. For redesigns, we also identify useful URLs and content that should be preserved.
Design deliverables, frontend implementation, CMS work, integrations and migration are agreed explicitly. Search foundations and useful content support discovery; rankings and a fixed conversion increase are not promised by a layout.
Assessment, continuity & ongoing delivery
Understand what exists before deciding what to change.
An established product carries real data, dependencies and working relationships. We assess its important journeys and technical constraints, then prioritize changes around continuity, maintainability and the next useful business outcome.
When this is useful
Useful for an inherited codebase, unreliable integration, difficult release process, performance problem or a product that needs a planned next phase. We work across Rails, Python, Node.js, React, Angular and WordPress where appropriate to the system.
How we approach it
We review architecture, dependencies, deployment, permissions and the behavior users rely on. We identify what can be retained, what needs focused repair and where a deeper change is justified. Improvements are organized into reviewable increments with recovery and compatibility considered.
What the starting scope can produce
- A prioritized assessment with impact and dependency notes
- A clear distinction between urgent repair and planned improvement
- An agreed first change or release scope with validation criteria
- Maintenance responsibilities, operational requirements and a next-stage roadmap
What to bring
The product’s purpose, current stack, important problems and who operates it. Public or redacted examples are enough for an initial discussion; credentials and private data are handled later through an agreed secure route.
Assessment precedes promises about an unfamiliar system. Monitoring, backups, incident response, routine maintenance and feature work are defined separately. Support hours, access and any response commitments must be explicitly agreed.
From conversation to commitment
Make the next decision with enough context.
01 / Initial conversation
A sentence or two about the goal, intended users and current situation is enough to begin. We review whether the work fits our capabilities and identify the important questions. The contact route stays short; detailed qualification happens through a relevant conversation.
02 / A defined starting scope
Some projects are clear enough to propose directly. Others benefit from a separately scoped discovery, design exploration or technical assessment. We agree its deliverables, review points and commercial terms before starting. You should understand what you are commissioning and which decisions it will resolve.
03 / A reviewable delivery plan
The next proposal connects the approved direction with implementation stages, responsibilities, assumptions and acceptance criteria. We distinguish essential first-release work from later options so the project can be discussed around complete outcomes rather than an expanding list of screens.
04 / Production and ongoing work
Deployment, handover and maintenance are planned around the product. We agree who owns access, which tasks need recurring attention and how further improvements are prioritized. Support hours and service commitments are defined in the engagement rather than implied by a generic promise.
A product has a life after launch
Plan the partnership beyond the release.
We can structure ongoing work around the needs of the product and the people operating it. A business platform may need dependency updates, operational checks and planned feature delivery. A growing brand may need interface improvements, illustration, presentation templates and coordinated website work. These are different responsibilities, and the agreement should make their boundaries clear.
A useful recurring engagement has a prioritized backlog, agreed capacity or defined tasks, review points and a clear way to request changes. We distinguish routine care from new development and identify work that requires separate estimation. That gives both teams a practical basis for planning instead of treating every request as an emergency.
For an existing system, we first establish its condition, access arrangements and release process. We do not promise recovery or round-the-clock support before understanding the environment. We can then propose an appropriate maintenance and improvement scope, with ownership and operational requirements documented.
Our aim is to make the next change easier to understand: what it affects, how it will be reviewed and how it will reach production. That continuity lets design and engineering stay connected as the business develops.
Before we begin
Practical questions. Clear expectations.
Do we need a complete brief before contacting you?
No. Explain the business, who the work should help and what you are trying to improve. We can identify the questions that need discovery. Existing sketches, a website or a difficult workflow example can help, but a polished specification is not required for an initial conversation.
Is the first step always a discovery project?
No. A clearly defined design or engineering task may be ready for a proposal. A complex or uncertain product can benefit from a separately scoped discovery or assessment. We explain why that work is useful, what it produces and how it informs the next phase before agreeing the engagement.
Can you work with our current software and team?
Yes, subject to an appropriate assessment. We review the architecture, ownership, dependencies and important user journeys, then agree the collaboration boundary. We can retain useful systems, improve a specific area or plan a larger change when the evidence supports it.
Can we commission design without development?
Yes. Logo, visual identity, web design, UI/UX, illustration and component specifications can be scoped independently. Where another team will implement the work, we agree the detail and handover needed to make the design useful. Production development is a separate scope unless explicitly included.
How do you estimate price and delivery time?
We estimate from the scope, complexity, dependencies, review process and operating requirements. User roles, integrations, file handling, migration and uncertain business rules can change the work significantly. We make assumptions and exclusions visible rather than offer a precise figure before understanding what must be delivered.
What happens if the requirement changes?
We assess the effect on the agreed design, data model, delivery plan and commercial scope. The change can be prioritized, traded against another item or proposed as a later phase. Consolidated feedback and clear decision ownership help keep the work coherent.
How should we share existing code or sensitive information?
Start with a public link or a non-confidential description. Please keep passwords, private customer information and confidential files out of the contact form. If the engagement requires access, we agree an appropriate secure route and the least access needed for the assessment or delivery task.
What should we expect from a long-term engagement?
An agreed scope and a way to prioritize, review and release work. Maintenance, monitoring, incident handling, design support and feature development are distinct responsibilities. We define the relevant ones, access ownership and any support commitments around your actual product and operating environment.
