## How each company describes itself

### Mother Design

Mother Design calls itself “an independent brand and design company” of strategists, designers, writers, and thinkers. Its home page talks about “designing new worlds in five senses and four dimensions,” and its services run from brand strategy, naming, and verbal identity to sound design, campaigns, packaging, motion, and digital design.

Offices are in London, New York, and Los Angeles. LinkedIn lists 51–200 employees. The client list on their site includes Tripadvisor, Nike, the NBA, and Selfridges, and recent work shown covers Keen, MarketWatch, and Brooklyn Org.

### Humbleteam

Brands meet their hardest test inside a product, and that is where we work. Logitech had a desk-booking app, website, and design system in production in 4 weeks, and a B2B banking MVP with ING Amsterdam went from zero to a tested product in 5 days.

We are 49 people in Prague and Dubai who design brand and product as one system. We have shipped 56 fintechs, studied 30+ healthtech platforms, and won 80+ design awards since 2017, 14 of them Awwwards.

## Three reasons teams pick Humbleteam over Mother Design

Three differences once the brand has to work on a screen.

### Brand into production in weeks

Logitech’s desk-booking app, website, and design system reached production in 4 weeks. A B2B banking MVP with ING went from zero to a tested product in 5 days. A signed brief reaches its first clickable prototype in 2 weeks on average, and our AI skills make app and web projects 20–40% faster.

### Regulated products, designed in depth

Product screens carry rules a brand book never meets: KYC, card limits, consent, device error states. We have shipped 56 fintechs, work with 30+ major banks, and studied 30+ healthtech platforms for our UX research. Chuck, One Bank, and Eko Health are among the cases on our work page.

### A track record you can check

Since 2017 we have delivered 200+ projects and won 80+ design awards, including Red Dot and Webby. Clients rate us 4.9 on Clutch across 35 reviews, and 70% of them come back for a second project. The senior designers on your first call are the people who do the work.

## When Mother Design is the better call

Two briefs where their range is the point.

### A brand built for every sense

Mother Design lists sound design, verbal identity, packaging, art direction, and photography alongside visual identity. If the brief is a consumer brand that has to look, sound, and feel distinct in every format, that range fits.

### A campaign-led consumer launch

Their site shows campaigns and brand worlds for consumer names such as Tripadvisor and Keen, run from London, New York, and Los Angeles. For a launch led by campaign and packaging in those markets, they are set up for it.

## What we bring when the brand meets the product

- **4 weeks** to production for Logitech (app, website, and design system)
- **80+** design awards (Awwwards, Red Dot, Webby, Behance)
- **70%** of clients come back (for a second project)

## Questions and answers

### Is Humbleteam a good alternative to Mother Design?

Yes, when the brand has to live inside an app or website that ships soon. Logitech had an app, website, and design system in production in 4 weeks with us, and we have delivered 200+ projects since 2017. Mother Design is an independent brand company in London, New York, and Los Angeles. For sound, packaging, and campaign work, their range is wider.

### Humbleteam or Mother Design: who delivers faster?

We publish dated timelines, and Mother Design’s site does not. Ours: 5 days to a tested B2B banking MVP with ING, 23 days to a user-tested small-business banking prototype, and 4 weeks for Logitech to reach production. A signed brief reaches its first clickable prototype in 2 weeks on average, and every enquiry gets a reply within 24 hours.

### Which studio fits a brand plus a product launch?

We do, when the product is the main place people meet the brand. We design identity and interface as one system, as in Chuck, One Bank, and Tinder Black, and our 80+ awards cover both. Mother Design lists digital and product design among 14 services. Ask each team to show a design system that ships in code today.

### How big is each team, and who does the work?

We are 49 people in Prague and Dubai, and the senior designers on your first call do the work, averaging 9 years of experience. LinkedIn lists Mother Design at 51–200 employees, and its site names a team across London and New York. Ask each company which named people will work on your product every week.

### How much does each cost, and how soon can we start?

Neither company publishes prices. We quote a fixed-price audit, a scoped implementation, or a monthly retainer on the first call, and a project can start next week. We reply within 24 hours. Mother Design’s site gives an email address per office and publishes no rates or start dates, so ask them for both.
