Our Culture

Capturing culture in a few words ain't easy but weโ€™ll give it a go...
โ€
That there ๐Ÿ‘‰ is a picture of our product design offsite in 2019. We stayed in Porto for a week working together on team building actives followed by a boat trip down the Douro river. The picture speaks for itself, it was mighty craic!

Fun Stuff We Do

During a typical week you'll find us doing some of the following non project-work related activities

Drawing Challenges

Pick a random topic and start drawing - you only have 3 minutes to complete - a recent example is Draw items on your desk fighting each other โœ๏ธ

Design Over Boose

We grab a drink (your choice) every 2nd Friday where we get a brief team update followed by chats. ๐Ÿน

Friday Jokes

Caroline and Miguel are crowned the joke legends and they gift us with a joke every Friday morning ๐Ÿ˜‚


Innovation Sessions

We explore some wild ideas. We can proudly say some of these ideas made it into the app. ๐Ÿš€

Watch Parties

So what the hellโ€™s a watch party? Normally reserved for fun things like Netflix or Disney+, watch parties are a way to watch your favourite episode together with your friends and then chat about it afterwards. Weโ€™ve done the same but for Design talks & then have a little discussion afterwards.

Itโ€™s a time for us to come together as Design Team and continue to build our design culture by being influenced and inspired by the broader design community.
