ABOUT THE DESIGN STUDIO

Design support for businesses that ship.

Brand, websites, platforms, and everything design. On a fixed sprint, a monthly retainer, or a custom build.

THE PRINCIPLE BEHIND THE WORK

Why we started this

For ten years we watched founders pick between agencies that move too slowly and freelancers who don't understand the business. The third option didn't exist. So we built it.

The pattern kept repeating.

Founders kept paying agencies $10K to $15K a month for work that didn't move the business. Or hiring freelancers who took weeks on a logo while the landing page didn't exist.

So we started The Design Studio.

A small team in Jaipur, India. Fixed-price sprints to launch. Monthly retainers for ongoing support. Founder-led, no theatre, no surprise invoices.

Businesses were waiting for exactly this.

Clients who once paid agencies $15K a month now pay a fraction of that for work they can actually point to. Some have stayed with us since 2018.

MEET THE FOUNDER

Hi, I'm Dev Sharma.

Designing since 2013, from solo founders to J&J, Microsoft, LG, Acquia, Philips, and Neil Patel. I started TDS in 2021 to fix what I'd spent a decade watching: agencies that didn't listen, and freelancers who couldn't move the business. So I built the alternative. Fast, fair, founder-led.

I lead a small team of 8 to 10 and I'm hands-on with every project. You talk to me directly. No account managers, no junior handoff, no surprises.

THE FOUNDATION OF OUR WORK

What we believe

A small team of 8 to 10, built like an in-house design team. Proven across dozens of small businesses and startups.

Outcomes before aesthetics.

Every brief starts with one question: what does this need to do for your business? The visuals follow from there.

Transparency builds trust.

Fixed prices. Defined deliverables. Scope boundaries written down. No hidden fees, no "let's discuss your budget."

Design is an investment.

Good design doesn't cost money. It makes money. Our clients raise more, convert more, and grow faster.

Speed wins.

For small businesses and startups, shipping fast matters more than perfection. We ship in days and weeks, not months.

A GOOD FIT LOOKS LIKE

Who we work with

This is for

Small businesses ready to look as good as their actual work is.
Funded startups that need consistent design without a full-time hire.
Service businesses where brand carries the deal.
Businesses that need real software, not just another brochure site.
Agencies that need white-label overflow support.

This is not for

Enterprises with six-week approval processes.
Brands that want a "discovery phase" before every project.
Companies that need 24/7 instant turnarounds.
Clients who want meetings instead of results.
People looking for the cheapest option. We're not cheap. We're worth it.
