About us

A studio that designs with care

Clarity, craft, and accountability - from first question to final handoff.

We treat your users like gold and your revenue like our own.

That means we ask hard questions before we open Figma, challenge assumptions before we write a line of code, and stay accountable until the work is done.

Why work with us

Why choose us - not an agency

Direct access, lean teams, and craft-first delivery - without the agency layers.

01.

You speak to the person doing the work

Not an account manager passing messages.

02.

Your budget goes on craft, not overhead

No layers of management eating your project cost.

03.

Every project gets senior attention

We take on fewer projects so each one gets more.

How we work

  • Research before pixels

    We talk to your users and stakeholders before we touch a screen.

  • One team. Full accountability.

    The person you brief is the person who delivers.

  • Design that earns its place

    Every element has a job. No decoration. No guesswork.

  • Honest advice, even when it costs us

    If we think you're solving the wrong problem, we'll tell you. We'd rather lose a project than deliver something that doesn't work.

Founder & Creative Director

Aleksandar Kehayov

A background in web technology and marketing means I've always seen design and business as one conversation - not two separate disciplines.

I started UX UI Mate because I kept seeing the same problem: good products let down by poor experience. That's the gap we close. Based in Newcastle. Working globally.
