Design Thinking for Collaborative Insights & Innovation
We help enterprises harness the power of design thinking to create better digital products and services, optimise internal processes, boost customer experience and gain insights for innovation.
What is Design Thinking?
Design thinking is a problem solving approach that aims to improve people’s experiences. We use this methodology to address a wide range of challenges and bring innovation to multidisciplinary teams or organisations.
Our Approach
Harnessing collective wisdom
Collaborative
We believe collaboration is a key tool in the design thinking process and the best outcomes are achieved when you have a multidisciplinary team solving a problem together.
Hands-on Practical
For non-practitioners, the design thinking process and tools can be overwhelming. We simplify the process by engaging everyone in multiple fun activities which can be used in real-life projects.
User-Centric
We understand that many people involved in the project may not come from a design background, and as such are able to help teams focus on the best outcomes for their users through the design process.
Design Thinking Tools & Methods
Participatory Innovation at work
Our team of designers and veteran technologists tackle complex challenges through human-centered design. We explore and use the right technology combinations to drive your digital transformation strategy and open up new opportunities for your business.
Card Sorting
This simple exercise will help you identify what’s most important to the people you’re designing for.
User Interviews
Quick and easy way to collect user data, especially in lead and agile environments. We use them to learn about users’ perceptions of your design, not about its usability.
Story Boards
Communicate ideas through visual stories that showcase how they fit into your users’ lives. By visually plotting out elements of your product or service, you can learn a lot about your idea.
Customer Journey Maps
A customer journey map allows you to identify and strategise for key moments in the product, experience, or service you’re designing.
Prototypes
Rapid Prototyping is an incredibly effective way to make ideas tangible, to learn through making, and to quickly get key feedback from the people you’re designing for.
Real-Life Testing
This involves generating unbiased user feedback as related to the prototypes you have developed, as well as gaining a deeper understanding of your users.
Co-Creation Session
The people you’re designing for can tell you plenty, and they can show you more. Here’s how to further incorporate them into your design process.
Roadmap
You’ll need a timeline and a plan of action to get your idea out into the world. A Roadmap keeps you on time and on target.
And many more...
Our designers choose the best methods based on focused problems. These methods are aimed are maximising creativity, putting people at the center and solving complex problems.

Buuuk joined forces with Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) to present a one-day course on “Design Thinking for Digital Product Strategy"
The workshop helped attendees to understand how to use design thinking as a tool to build product and customer service.

Our Partners
We partner with clients to serve them long term and be part of the success story.
We have been working with Buuuk since 2011. They are part of the reasons why many of Singapore Press Holdings marketing's digital executions are top-notch and unrivalled.
When our developer couldn’t deliver UX to our satisfaction, we looked out for another partner to support our project. Luckily we found Buuuk. They understood our demands and provided our app with amazing UX and UI, which have received fantastic feedback from the users across APAC.
