Description The industrial design of physical products is the historical core of our business. We understand the human issues in detail, anticipate commercial and technical constraints, and then convert this combined insight into realistic simulations to test and evolve look, feel and behaviour. Alloy combines user insight, technical understanding, and commercial constraints to create realistic product concepts that can be tested, refined, and prepared for production.Skills in 3D (9) 3D Rendering3D Animation3D Modeling3D PrintingIndustrial Design3D Design3D Visualisation3D Product RenderingBlenderWorks in 3D (10) Clients in 3D (4) NextbaseAutomotiveBTConsumer ElectronicsSkumaBeverageSamsungFood

Through layout, typography, colour, imagery, and composition, graphic design shapes how information is understood and remembered. Strong Photoshop skills sit at the heart of this process-enabling precise image editing, retouching, compositing, and visual refinement that elevates concepts from functional to impactful.Skills in Graphic Design (11) IllustrationLogo DesignVisual DesignCreative DesignLogo DevelopmentUser Centric DesignMockup DesignIntuitive Design2D DesignLogo Graphic Design+1Works in Graphic Design (7) Clients in Graphic Design (4) BTConsumer ElectronicsSkumaBeverageStella CiniClothing & AccessoriesRaymarineConsumer Electronics
