About Us

Busse Design USA is a full-service user interface design firm founded in 1997. We collaborate with clients to create a satisfying user experience with visually compelling and usable interfaces for software products and web sites. Our services include: information architecture, interaction design, and full visual design and branding services.

We specialize in learning new markets and technologies, as you can see from the wide range of client projects in our portfolio. At the start of each project, we immerse ourselves in the world of our client and their users, understanding both the goals of the business and the target audience. Our information architects and interaction designers take on the structure and functions, and our visual designers make it all visually compelling -- either working within your brand guidelines, or helping you to create a new brand.

We understand the importance of supporting our clients' processes, and ensuring our designs work with their technologies, which can range from legacy to emergent. Our process supports the methodologies required for quality system development and integration. Whether we work with a development partner or a client's in-house engineering team, we make sure the Busse Design process integrates seamlessly and collaboratively into the overall product development process.

Please contact us to discuss our time-tested process and our work in more detail.

Busse Design is a boutique size firm. We have made a conscious decision to remain small in size, taking on a limited number of projects at any one time. This strategy results in superior work by enabling our clients to always interact with senior information architects and designers. Our sister company Busse Design + Engineering GmbH was founded in 1959, and offers a full range of industrial design services. To learn more about their offerings, please visit the Busse Design + Engineering web site.

Busse Design takes on one pro bono project a year from Nonprofits. Please contact us for more information.

Busse was a perfect fit for our new product launch. They took the time to understand what we needed, had just the right amount of project management, and gave us a sweet homepage and website design. They’re very strong on both interaction design and pure visual design, which can be hard to find in a design firm.

Joy and her group were able to quickly conceptualize the nuanced aspects of our technology. They delivered clever design solutions to our unusual product requirements, while staying responsive to our fast-moving schedule. I look forward to working with them again.

When we started this project, I expressed to you the need for our user interface to set us apart from our competitors. True to your word, you all gave me an end-product that has enabled us to stand out of the pack. When we demo our system, we get extremely positive feedback on the usability, graphics, and overall look and feel - one client actually said (we have a quote in our whiteboard), It's beautiful!

It is important for me to communicate how much I appreciate your hard work, and how real an effect it has had on our business. Plus,I know I was not the easiest client.

Joy and her staff are incredible and were a key part of our project's success. They quickly came up to speed on our unique business needs and were able to design a site that exceeded our customer's expectations. Their usability expertise brought many new concepts and ideas to the table. They told us when we were making bad decisions and they were right every time! They have a small shop - but don't let that fool you - these people are leaders in the field of usability. I wish all of my projects could run as this one.

Busse Design was an excellent partner to Market7 at a dynamic time of our own growth and while we were balancing Busse interaction design efforts with our own engineering + contributions from two other outsourced firms that did software development. We are avid practicioners of agile processes and Busse adjusted practices to accommodate our approach, including several twists and turns in our realized versus anticipated path. We are delighted with the results derived from our collaboration -- a gorgeous and useful environment that is delighting our early users and relations.

The team at Busse design is very talented, hard working and systematic in their approach to getting things done. I highly recommend Busse Design if you are looking for elegant solutions for your UI design challenges.

Busse Design was able to take our sophisticated business model and translate it into a polished and user friend design for our online marketplace. Not only were the designs stunning, but also greatly increased our conversion rate. We are looking forward to working with them very soon.

We really enjoyed working with Busse. They’re smart, committed people. They offered us new and interesting ways to realize our vision and goals. They do what they say they are going to do, and they do it well. We have nothing but positive things to say about the entire team.

Joy and her entire team were outstanding to work with. They dove knee deep into our project right from the start and asked all the right questions. They were strong in every area necessary for a successful Website overhaul - from information architecture and usability, to flash and design. I think of Busse Design as an extension of my interactive team and wouldn't trust anyone but them for any future Web projects, small or large.

The Busse team made the whole project a fun and well organized experience – together we turned boring dental data into a beautiful and relevant user experience for our customers. We’ve already gotten great feedback on the ease of use and clean design. They are project management masters, tech and design wizards and just great people to work with.
