What our clients say about us
Derm came through highly recommended and didn´t disappoint. He ran a series of workshops with the team taking us through proven theories around UI and helping make it applicable to the very live on stage product development process at Edgefolio.

Want to talk UX - design through to usability? Then Derm's your man. I've now hired Derm twice in two separate companies and he's delivered the insights and results that I needed. I first hired Dem while at BSkyB and then again at Hive (by British Gas). Derm has an amazing ability of not only doing the work required to provide the necessary improvements in UX, but can also help you set yourself up to do this in the future so you become self reliant. On numerous occasions I've given Derm the brief and then forget about it because I know he'll provide what i need first time every time. No hesitation in recommending.

Diarmad is a professional, insightful and personable UX expert with a great eye for the details that can make or break a design. I've known him for many years via the UX community and it was a pleasure to work with him recently on a connected home project, an area in which he has a lot of recent experience. His approach to UX is practical and pragmatic but always grounded in a thorough knowledge of HCI best practice and theoretical knowledge. Through the IXD Studio team and network of partners, he is able to provide a full UX design and consulting service.

Derm was engaged on a project to review end to end IP video delivery at Sky. His role was to develop user stories driven by archetypal personas that would be used to build technical tests. Derm delivered his work efficiently and professionally. He even went beyond the brief to research existing behavioural experiences.

If you need help figuring out how to design or optimise your existing digital user experience be it web, tablet or mobile, Diarmad is your man. Diarmad is exceptionally thorough and uses a hands-on systematic iterative research and learning approach relying on his vast domain expertise. On top of that he is personable and direct or diplomatic at the right times.
