Hello there!

In this page you can see a brief showcase of our latest projects and our main areas of work.

GAME DESIGN

Yemeni Conflict Serious Games

GIZ Germany commissioned a total of 7 serious mobile games as a vehicle to reach the youth in Yemen, unreachable to NGOs since the 2015-present conflict.

Each application funnels different positive messages such as overcoming tribal conflict, encourage disarmament and support female empowerment.   

The ongoing project, currently spanning 4 years, is being developed in close co-creation with the consultancy team in Sana'a, whom we keep daily contact with. Our responsibilities range from the co-creation of the game design documents, to animation and UI design. 

Local Yemeni artists handled illustration and sound design to guarantee the relevance of the project.

WEB DESIGN

Website Redesign for Engineering Research Company

NBM tech is a leading research engineering company. They plan, customise and execute research for those who seek to elevate beyond the industry standards.

They approached us for a redesign of their website that would fittingly represent them as the recognised experts they are.

We helped them sharpen their brand strategy, revise the architecture of their website, and art directed the project. Plus we learnt how cool topology optimisation is, and that sheet piles are not smelly at all.

See the website here.

ANIMATION

Move your pixels

We crafted and animated different icons to highlight the sectors our client focuses on.

Practicing our animation skills with a public service message on the importance of good editorial design: Be nice to your text & your text will be nice to your audience.

PERSONAL PROJECTS

Bunnies taught us coding

We've been working a lot with Unity for the last 2 years and it got us hooked. We started building our own side project during our free time, learning the basics of C#. At the same time this was a first for us diving into pixel art.

The rest was traditional frame by frame animation in Aseprite and looooong hours trying to understand why the Raycasting is not working %#!@#...

This is still a work in progress.

ILLUSTRATION

Crafted visuals

Supporting the content with flawless imagery is a must to first grab a busy user's attention; then it's up to well thought copy and clear typographic hierarchy to keep them engaged.

Working with Bomburo was an absolute pleasure.
They were incredibly professional and efficient and were able to take our ideas and translate them into concrete design outputs.

Moreover, they were very flexible in incorporating our feedback on an earlier version of the design and were able to turn around a product incredibly quickly. Their expertise in design greatly contributed to the excellent work they did.

We would highly recommend working with them.

Bomburo was able to seamlessly take data and turn it into digestible and informative infographics. This is a testament to their ability to turn complex ideas and concepts into creative digital assets.

They were completely professional, reliable, and flexible. I would definitely like to work with them again in future.
