WHAT WE BELIEVE · AND WHYBELIEFS · 02

Most design work is asked to be new. We are usually asked for something harder: to be right, and to stay right after we have gone.

That changes how we work. A brand that has to last ten years cannot be a passing mood — it needs clear rules you can write down, and reasons you can question. An app someone uses every day cannot be pleasant the first time and tiring the hundredth.

So we work carefully, the way a precision tool is made. We work out what has to be true, make as few decisions as it takes to get there, and write down why. You do not just get files from us. You get the rules for using them, the reasons behind them, and an honest note about anything we were unsure of.

“Anyone can show a finished result. We show how we got there, so you can judge it for yourself.”

The Work
04The Work

For each project: what made it hard, and what we did about it.

How we work
05How we work

Three habits, not a rigid process.

HOW WE WORK · THREE HABITSAPPROACH · 05
01 // Problem first

We start with what the work has to stand up to, not with the wish list. A brief says what someone wants. What the work has to stand up to — ten years of use, a tired carer, a slow phone — is usually one sentence long, and it is usually missing from the brief.

02 // Do less

Then we cut back. Most design problems are solved by deciding what not to make — the second font, the third colour, the settings screen that exists because nobody could agree. We try to hand over fewer pieces than we were asked for, and make every one of them earn its place.

03 // Measure it

We measure what can be measured, and say so plainly when something cannot be. Whether text is easy to read, whether sizes and spacing are consistent, whether a page loads quickly: these are facts you can check, not matters of taste. Where a choice really is a judgement call, we say so.

Who we are, and what we will not take on.

THE STUDIO · WHO WE ARESTANDARDS · 06

ARYASTRA is a small studio. The people who meet you are the people who do the work; there is no second team behind them.

  1. We take work that has to outlast a campaign.
  2. We work directly with whoever will own the result after we leave.
  3. We hand over the reasoning, not only the files.
  4. We do not do unpaid pitches.
  5. We would rather say no to a project than take it on without enough hands.
