A small, senior studio. Big on detail.
We help ambitious businesses turn ideas into better digital experiences, stronger brands and smarter systems.
We don't build websites just to look good. We build digital experiences that work.
DesignUX8 is a digital studio led by Patty Damiao, a web designer and UI/UX developer. We work with small and medium businesses, startups, founders and agencies that want a website and brand they're proud of, and systems that save them time.
Most businesses buy design, development and marketing from different people who never talk to each other. We connect all three. That means your brand, your website and your growth plan are built together, around the same goal: making it easier for customers to choose you.
We're based in Manila and work with clients across the UK, Ireland, Europe, Australia and the US. We work async by design, with clear written updates and shared docs, so your project keeps moving whatever your timezone.
The DesignUX8 rules.
Design for understanding.
Not decoration. If a visitor can't get your message in 3 seconds, the design isn't finished.
Build things that work.
Fast, accessible, mobile-first and easy to update. Pretty is the minimum, not the goal.
Sell outcomes, not services.
We recommend what gets you results, even if that means doing less.
Keep it simple.
Plain English, clear pricing and no jargon. You should always know what you're paying for.
Write it down.
Decisions, updates and handovers in writing, so nothing gets lost and you can refer back anytime.
Aim for accessible.
We design to WCAG AA contrast and keyboard standards, because good UX works for everyone.
Modern tools, used with purpose.
We design in Figma, build on WordPress, Shopify and WooCommerce, and automate with Zapier, Make and AI. We pick the right tool for your business, not the trendiest one.
Let's make digital simpler, smarter and better.
