Why Founders Choose Halaska as Their Web3 Design Studio

Why Founders Choose Halaska as Their Web3 Design Studio

There are plenty of design studios out there. But when it comes to designing complex, high-trust products in Web3, the margin for error is razor-thin.

Over the last two years, Halaska has become the go-to Web3 design partner for founders building products that need more than just a pretty interface. Here’s why they choose us—and what makes our approach different.

1. We’re Web3-Native—and It Shows

We’re not a Web2 agency “dabbling in crypto.” We’ve built wallets, DEXs, DAO tools, and token utilities from the ground up.

Our team understands:

  • Wallet permissions, network switching, and token approvals

  • Chain abstraction, embedded wallets, and bridging UX

  • The difference between a smooth flow and a scary one

✅ “Phenomenal—knows innately how to merge the best of Web2 and Web3.” — Robbie Ferguson, Co-founder of Immutable

2. We Design for Real Users—Not Just Screenshots

Crypto UX is often built for devs, not people. We flip that.

Halaska designs:

  • Progressive onboarding flows

  • Interfaces for non-crypto users

  • Copy that builds trust and confidence at every step

  • Feedback systems that prevent confusion and drop-off

✅ “MVP is getting glowing user feedback.” — Niloo, CEO of Newkinnon

3. We Work Hands-On With Founders

We’re not a big agency with layers of project managers and junior designers.

At Halaska:

  • You work directly with the founder or design lead

  • We adapt to your process (Slack, Figma, Notion, whatever works)

  • We’re a strategic partner, not just a design vendor

✅ “Complete professionals, clear communication, excellent work.” — Cameron Lee, Co-founder of Nuon

4. We Think in UX Systems, Not Just UI Components

We don’t just “make it look good.” We think like product designers.

Our work includes:

  • Full user flows before UI

  • Dark/light design systems

  • Edge case coverage (failed transactions, unknown tokens, mobile behavior)

  • MVPs that scale to V2 without design debt

✅ “One of the most experienced and diverse design professionals in the space.” — Levi, Founder of IntentX

5. We’ve Helped Teams Raise Millions and Launch at Scale

Our clients include top DeFi protocols, infrastructure tools, NFT projects, and AI x blockchain startups. Some were early-stage. Others were scaling to thousands of users and billions in volume.

What we delivered:

  • MVPs ready for launch and investor pitches

  • Brand and product packages in 4–6 week sprints

  • Long-term design partnerships for evolving roadmaps

✅ “Instrumental in identifying the product vision.” — Kain Warwick, Founder of Infinex

TL;DR

Founders choose Halaska because:

  • We’re deeply embedded in Web3

  • We design products that feel effortless—even when the tech is complex

  • We’ve helped teams go from zero to funding, traction, and trust

  • We show up like partners—not vendors
