Through our collaborative approach to design, we work closely with clients to understand their brand values, ethos, and target audience, allowing us to develop products that authentically reflect their brand identity and resonate with consumers.

Through our network of trusted suppliers and manufacturing partners, we ensure product quality, consistency, and timely delivery, allowing our clients to focus on their core business activities and drive growth.
Consumer-Centric Design Principles

Through user research, prototyping, and iterative testing, we validate design concepts and refine product features to enhance user satisfaction and drive brand loyalty.

Through ongoing collaboration with clients, feedback analysis, and market monitoring, we evolve our design strategies and methodologies to address changing market dynamics and deliver impactful solutions that drive business success.
Solving business challenges
Creating excitement about a new product is not just a marketing function but it has to be designed from the ground up. In addition, key differentiation is important to drive early adoption and funding. For this, we put a lot of emphasis on understanding strategic business objectives to achieve a brand’s design, scaling and funding goals.
Our core offering
Our expertise lies in industrial design right from research, and ideation to colour, material and finish. A mix of design, hardware, and software is what drives experience and guides our design process. We combine cutting-edge tech with stunning design and intuitive navigation, crafting devices that do what users need but also feel amazing to use.
We build for the future
New technology is generally not designed keeping the end user in mind. It’s unnecessarily complicated, tough to understand and tougher to implement in daily life. Design humanises this aspect. We create relevant user-centric experiences through hardware and software as the key to differentiation and relevance for the time ahead.

We worked with Analogy to create a new identity and packaging design for some of our products. Our experience working with their team of talented designers was fantastic. They approached the project by understanding our requirements and setting clear strategies to help create value and showcase that in the best way possible to our customers. They understood the market and the users clearly and then worked to deliver a fresh new outlook that helped increase the value proposition of our offerings. We will definitely work with them again.

Analogy helped us create a new brand look for us as well as designed an entire commercial range of solutions for global cuisines. The team worked on an iterative methodology that drove innovation. As we showcase our work globally, we were able to translate that feedback to the team at Analogy and they knew how to translate our desires into a unique range of kitchenware. We had a very diverse range which was strategically branded and designed with the primary users in mind. We have embarked on a journey and with each stage of the process, they exceeded our expectations.

Analogy has been a terrific partner for Amazon for the past 3 years. We have relied on them to help us penetrate new markets and also to keep increasing our ROI in existing offerings to our customers on the packaging of our gift cards online and corporate designs. Analogy’s team has delivered consistently and innovated at every point. So much so, that we sold out of units to sell for our Diwali gift boxes in a short period of time, an amazing achievement.

Yes, at Analogy we have developed our own unique process to design, which is a combination of industry-standard practices and our own frameworks. Our Design by Analogy process focuses on creating analogies to communicate sophisticated inspiration and emotion to create relation with new and fresh concepts. This type of a different thinking, beliefs, and philosophies allow us to approach mundane products with fresh and interesting perspectives, which result in stunning outcomes.
At Analogy, we certainly value the principles of design thinking and incorporate them into our design process. However, we don't limit ourselves to a rigid framework and prefer to use a combination of industry-standard practices and our own unique approach to bring fresh and innovative results. While design thinking can be helpful, we believe that creativity and flexibility are key to creating timeless products with great consumer experiences.
At Analogy, we strongly believe that the physical and digital experiences are two sides of the same coin. Industrial Design deals with designing the physical products and User Experience/User Interface (UX/UI) design deals with designing digital products. The key is to understand that both design disciplines share the same goal: to create a product that meets the needs and expectations of the user. By combining Industrial Design with UX/UI, we can create products that offer a seamless experience from the physical world to the digital world. We start by understanding the user's needs and designing the physical product accordingly. Then we create a digital interface that complements the physical design and provides a seamless experience to the user. This approach helps us create products that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and intuitive.
Our expertise lies in building products out of ideas by prioritizing user needs and craft products that resonate with their emotions and experiences. We also integrate eco-friendly practices throughout the design process, minimizing environmental impact. Our client-centric process ensures we have an open communication system and work closely with clients. Our design process always embraces new technologies and implements exciting tools.
We employ constant testing procedures and adhere to strict industry standards. We also ensure that the communication between our team and the client is two-way with a circular approach to feedback. We actively seek out new technologies and methodologies to deliver high-quality design solutions.
Our commitment to innovation, research and development as a leading design studio includes leveraging AI, user research that anticipate market-trends. We actively participate in industry events to keep up-to-date with trends and partner with experts to stay ahead. Rapid prototyping, user-centered iterative processes helps us translate vision to market-ready products.
