I must confess I was wrong


It sounds so obvious in hindsight, but sometimes we get so focused on our ideas, our process, and yes—our ego—that we miss something bigger. We become so concentrated on perfecting the design, chasing the ideal form or solving the challenge in our own head, that we overlook an opportunity that’s right in front of us: the client as a creative partner.

For a long time, I thought my role was to take a brief, disappear into my world, and come back with something impressive. A beautiful concept. A manufacturable solution. A “wow” moment.

But over time, I’ve realised that even the best design work can fall short if it’s not built on real collaboration. The most successful projects I’ve ever been part of—projects I’m truly proud of—weren’t built for the client, but with them.



When both sides become invested, curious, and passionate about the process, something changes. It’s no longer about approval cycles or handovers—it becomes one team solving a problem together. Energy flows differently. The results are sharper, more relevant, and often more exciting than anything either side could have done alone.

Of course, that kind of synergy doesn’t happen every time. It depends on the project, the product, the personalities, and the pressure. But when it’s needed—it’s powerful. And sometimes, it’s the only way to create something truly meaningful.

Other times, I feel it’s better to quietly step back. To close the door, focus fully, and return with something unexpected. Something that surprises the client in the best way. That moment of “yes, this is it” often opens up a new level of trust and collaboration. Suddenly, we’re not just delivering a solution—we’re shaping a future together.

That’s the kind of work I strive for at WOWME Design.

This isn’t just about creating beautiful products. It’s about reading the rhythm of each project—knowing when to co-create, and when to carry the torch—and always protecting the integrity of the idea through deep involvement, clear thinking, and care.

If you're tired of feeling like a spectator in your own project—or overwhelmed by teams who just tick boxes—maybe it's time for a different kind of design relationship.



Here’s what working with WOWME Design brings:

  • Genuine collaboration when it matters most 

    – We invite you into the process with intention, not obligation.

  • Moments of creative surprise 

    – We design space to surprise and delight—not just deliver.

  • Design grounded in manufacturability 

    – From sketch one, our thinking is shaped by research, materials, and production logic.

  • A shared goal, not just a task list 

    – We don’t chase trends. We work toward impact, clarity, and integrity.

  • A long-term partner 

    – One who stays curious, committed, and aligned as your brand evolves.

Let’s build something together—something you’ll be proud of, because you helped shape it.🌐 www.wowme.design
