Francois Labs is an interdisciplinary design studio focused on research, identity, and product.

We work collaboratively with clients to turn ideas into standout work. Whether it’s big or small, one-off or ongoing, doesn't matter to us. We simply love to create, and the more challenging it is, the better.

Most importantly, we only take on a handful of projects at a time, so everything we work on gets our best.

Things we've done (but are not limited to):

• Developed culturally relevant brand identities and guidelines

• Designed and developed websites, from general landing pages to eCommerce platforms

• Crafted product designs for consumer, B2B, and government desktop and mobile apps

• Built "engineering-happy" design systems

• Supported hiring and building engineering and design team functions

• Implemented no BS, user-centric product development processes

• Designed rave posters, packaging for cannabis companies, streetwear merch, and other viral promotional materials

• Crafted McKinsey-level pitch decks and reports

• Designed for live in-person events and experiences like SXSW

• Conducted comprehensive user and market research

• Delivered talks on trends and creative strategies

We’ve won awards working with clients of all sizes and industries like Toyota, Couchbase, Nokia, SAP, First American, Apple, Tennr, SuperRare, Forma, Rollfi, Backtrack, Genie, KAST, Jito, EmergentX, Steward, Jot, FWB, Cosign, Adapt, Frwd Fund, and many more…
