Kruidvat
UX and UI for the Kruidvat app, uniting loyalty, e-commerce and in-store shopping in one platform used by millions.
Outsourcing design usually fails for three reasons: time zones that never overlap, language friction, and a team that has never worked to Western standards. None of those apply here.
The time zone actually works
Istanbul is GMT+3. That means a full working-day overlap with London, Paris, Amsterdam and Berlin, and our afternoon catches the US East Coast morning. Nothing waits overnight for an answer.
Compare that with outsourcing to South or East Asia, where a simple question can cost a full day of momentum.
Standards and language
Every conversation, document and file is in English. Our clients include Dutch, Belgian, British, Mexican and South African companies, and we have worked to their internal design standards, brand systems and accessibility requirements.
We work in Figma, hand over documented component libraries, and support your developers through the build — the same working pattern an in-house or local agency team would follow.
What it saves
A senior UX designer in Western Europe costs roughly €600–€900 per day through an agency. Our rates land 30–60% below that for equivalent seniority and output.
For a typical app project that difference is often the gap between designing the product properly and cutting the research and testing phases to fit a budget.

Questions
Frequently asked
Whatever suits you — Slack, Teams, email, and scheduled video calls. We work inside your tools rather than asking you to adopt ours.
All work transfers to you on completion. We sign NDAs routinely, including before you send us anything.
Yes, and several clients use us that way — working inside their existing design system, attending their standups and taking tickets from their backlog.
Tell us early and we'll confirm what's realistic. We would rather flag a constraint than quietly add people who don't know the project.
