Projects

BiziKiddo Travel Kits

BiziKiddo is a startup that offers travel activity kits for children. Parents traveling with young kids often struggle to keep their children entertained and less stressed to maintain a quiet environment for themselves and others. Finding a product that surprises and engages children for a longer time is challenging because most activity kits on the market are too similar and already well-known to kids. BiziKiddo addresses this by offering unique sets of toys and activities, with each kit customized based on the child’s age, gender, and interests. The product we created for this startup includes a mobile app and a responsive website.See More

Dunnell Flight Club

Dunnellon Flight Club is a privately owned company offering a broad range of services for private and small commercial aviation, based at Marion County Airport in Florida, USA. The current website provides only minimal information, leading to numerous repetitive inquiries at the reception desk that could be addressed online. Additionally, the airplane booking system is currently limited to standard paper forms and urgently needs to be converted to an electronic version. The redesigned website will feature a responsive design with up-to-date information about the company’s business and club events. It will also include essential information and useful tools for clients and students.See More

The product is a Social Networking Service delivered through a mobile app and a complementary responsive website. By targeting all types of electronic devices, except smartwatches, the project will be accessible to a broad audience.See More
