Small enough to care. Big enough to make a difference.
At Pixelpod Design Studio, we bring a layer of research and understanding to our client projects that lifts our designs to a level that truly connects and inspires.
The Pixelpod Experience
We balance traditional design sensibilities with an experimental approach that always pushes the boundaries of what is possible to achieve with design. The collaborative nature of our studio not only draws on the skills, inspiration and experience of our founders James and Yvonne, but also on the talents of specialist freelancers when other resources are needed in areas such as web development, photography, copywriting, illustration and design.
You are the expert on your product or service. Our expertise is in facilitating the branding and communication of your message with your audience. Every design project is carefully considered using the Design Thinking Process that involves gathering an understanding of a client’s business and its customers, generating ideas, testing ideas, reflection and refining of ideas.
We will arrange a meeting with you to ask questions about your business and discuss your design and brand needs. With this information and some additional research, our team will start to generate ideas on how we can best communicate your message with target audiences.
After several rounds of refining ideas, we will present you with our designs. At this stage we love to see our clients excited about the possibilities, as your brand and message begin to come alive with eye-catching visuals. We openly discuss our designs with clients and work on refining them based on your feedback. The process should be smooth and enjoyable for you, so we can liaise with third party suppliers such as hosting companies and printers on your behalf, as well as provide staff training on website management.
Working with Pixelpod, clients witness first hand that quality design makes a difference to their business or campaign by increasing brand awareness and converting more customers. We are motivated by the stories we hear from clients about the positive impact our work has had on their business.
Pixelpod was founded in 2011 and is owned by husband and wife team James and Yvonne Rath in Wexford Town. Members of IDI (Institute of Designers in Ireland), Wexford Chamber and Fuse:d (Designers and Business network in the South East).
