Concierge
Imagine being able to browse an in-store flyer, manage your shopping list, research interesting meal ideas, view a store map, get detailed product information and even check out from your shopping cart. Concierge was designed to realize this vision.
Concierge Charge Cart
The Concierge shopping cart handle leveraged a removable lithium ion battery that would be removed and recharged once a day. Ease of manuverability and safety were two critical factors to success.
Power Footwear

Price Chopper Mobile
In collaboartaion with Mercatus Technologies, iOS and Android mobile applications were created for Price Chopper to allow their users to browse flyers, manage shopping lists and more.
Trillium Teams
A fresh brand was important to reflect the youth and excitement of the company. A great company, positive results and a memorable experience.
MODE AMP Pedal
MODE Soundworks, an amazing group of guys with a clear product vision. Instead of a traditional plastic pedal design, we chose to use spring steel. With our expected lower volumes this was a cost effective and innovative solution - not to mention pretty darn sexy.
DW Website
DW Product Development needed a site that showcased the high quality products they develop.
Food Lion iPhone
The Fool Lion iPhone application was the first significant commercially available product that leveraged the Mercatus Platform. Customers were enabled to browse flyers, manage shopping lists, view meal ideas, find stores and see special promotions.
AutoTrendZ
TFollowing the look and feel of the “Fast & Furious” market, AutoTrendZ was a fun exploration of a design aesthetic that was a little outside of our comfort zone.
Canon iPhone Camera
An exploration on the evolution of the camera. With mobile phones continuing to displace point-&-click camera’s, their best chance of survival is product augmentation rather than direct competition.
Huh?
Our first iPhone application. Have you ever wondered how to say “Pull my finger” in Arabic? Russian? Here was an app to help solve this critical need. Now everyone can crudely communicate with others around the globe.
CUSID
Carleton University’s School of Industrial Design wanted a new site presence that better showcased students work and adopted an aesthetic appropriate to a leading design school.
"Define the problem"
By understanding and defining client objectives, we develop an overall strategy. Appropriate information is gathered and structured, competing systems are researched and analyzed, and the target user group is defined.
"Design the solution"
Through an iterative conceptual process we collect, organize, and refine content. All elements are developed and combined to form an overall design solution.
"Develop the product"
Once the design specification is completed, we realize the solution. Client feedback is incorporated and the concept is fully refined and brought to life.
"Deploy to users"
The project is finally introduced to the target audience. Usability and quality assurance testing is an ongoing process. As client objectives evolve, we stay in step with your ever-changing needs.
