start a project

taking on new projects

we make products people stop for.

02 who we are

we design products, then we build them.

good friction is a new design and development studio. here’s where we stand today, straight off the board.

in shortwe’re a new studio that designs digital products and builds them, start to finish. we don’t have a client list yet, so we made ourselves the first client. that’s the next section.

the orange row is the one that matters to you.

03 selected work

case 01 · good friction

our first client was us.

a new studio needs a logo, a typeface, colours and a website. we made all four from one shape. scroll in.

01 · the mark

two rings. one spark.

the “oo” in good, drawn as two rings. where they touch, a spark: the moment something catches. everything else grows out of it.

02 · the typeface

inside the spark, a typeface.

gf contact, drawn from the same ring as the logo, in three weights. every headline on this site is set in it.

03 · the colour

inside its o, the colour.

greys carry the page. orange gets one moment per screen, so when it shows up, it means something.

04 · the website

inside the orange, this site.

designed and built in-house, section by section. you’re scrolling it right now.

05 · in use

then out into the world.

a browser tab, a home screen, a phone. the same spark at every size.
