Web Design Review from Kristen Garcia
Content Magazine is pleased with the website, finding it valuable for its organization. The client entrusted Baunfire with its ideas and shared the desired outcome. In response, Baunfire crafted a design aesthetic that stands out in their local area. The visual display exceeds Content Magazine's initial expectations. Moreover, Baunfire has made the website more user-friendly, especially on the backend. Also, Content Magazine can now update the website independently. (Verified via email)
Web Design Review from Guillaume Bienaime
Baunfire designed and developed Zola's WordPress website from scratch. Initially, Zola shared its ideas, examples of preferences, and necessary content. They then collaborated through multiple drafts until finalizing the design. From there, Baunfire proceeded to build the site. The website allows customers to make reservations, view the menu, and access essential information, such as the restaurant's operation hours. (Verified via email)

ANML Reviews & Testimonials
Product Design Review from Manuel Colom
Working with ANML on the Yummly app experience and the Yummly Smart Thermometer (IoT) was an outstanding collaboration. Yummly combined personalized recipe discovery, meal planning, and guided cooking into a highly curated food experience, while the Smart Thermometer extended that ecosystem into connected cooking with real-time temperature tracking and assisted preparation workflows. As Director of UX at Yummly, I worked closely with ANML throughout both initiatives, and they operated almost as a seamless extension of our internal design team. Their work consistently demonstrated excellent design craft, strong product thinking, and a highly collaborative mindset. Beyond delivering high-quality UX and visual design, their contribution helped sharpen and strengthen the overall value proposition of the products by making complex cooking experiences feel approachable, premium, and intuitive for users.
Web Design Review from Nathan Thornburgh
As Anthony Bourdain's partners, we were approached by CNN to create an immersive digital site that would provide a beautiful home for each destination covered by Bourdain's show Parts Unknown. It was a huge task not least because there were already close to 100 destinations to integrate into a usable global site. But also because the site was meant to live up to the beauty and aesthetic of the television program. And it needed to be done in a way that satisfied both our mainstream luxury advertisers (like LandRover, ANA, and more) but also the famously high standards of Bourdain himself. ANML engaged in this 18-month design and build process with outstanding workmanship and creative decision-making. They navigated wildly different and demanding stakeholders. And in the end they built a site that still looks fresh even nearly a decade later. If you want to make lasting work, there is no one else I could recommend more.
Web Design Review from Alex Lacerda
We partnered with ANML to evolve our digital experience in a way that stayed true to our brand while modernizing how we present our products and story. As a company with a long history in music, it was important to find a partner who could respect that legacy while helping us move forward.ANML took the time to understand our brand, our audience, and the role our products play for musicians. They built on our existing foundation and translated it into a more cohesive and intuitive experience that better reflects who we are today.Their team brought strong thinking across UX and design, helping us improve how content is structured, how products are presented, and how users navigate the experience. The collaboration was smooth and highly responsive throughout.The end result is a more polished and modern experience that still feels authentic to our brand. ANML was a thoughtful and reliable partner, and we would highly recommend them.

Hiring Guide: How to Choose a Leading Design Company in the US
How much do top design agencies charge in the USA?
They typically charge $150-$200 per hour, based on DesignRush data.
Project-based pricing models (from DesignRush data):
- Logo & graphic design: $5,000-$20,000
- Brand identity & brand systems: $50,000-$100,000+
- Website design (custom): $20,000-$100,000
- Website redesigns: $100,000-$150,000+
- Product & UX/UI design: $75,000-$175,000+
In terms of project fees, most engagements fall in the $20,000-$100,000 range, though a significant portion of projects exceed $100,000, especially complex web, brand, or product design work.
What outcomes should businesses expect?
Top design engagements drive metrics. Typical results include:
- Revenue & leads: 84% of companies see higher revenue after improving design and CX. Good UX can boost conversions up to 400%.
- Brand impact: Consistent visual design increases brand recognition by 68% and consumer trust by 55%.
- Engagement & retention: A user-friendly, responsive design can improve engagement by ~20%, encouraging repeat purchases and referrals.
- Operational efficiency: Design systems reduce development costs by ~20–30%, by speeding content publishing and lowering long-term maintenance.
- Trust & compliance: Accessible UI mitigates legal risks through Web Vitals and accessibility compliance.
How do I choose the best design company in the US?
Selecting an agency is about fit and evidence. Key criteria:
- Outcome focus
Look for partners who tie design to your KPIs. Ask for case studies showing data (e.g. “We redesigned X page and conversion jumped Y%”). - Research & process
Ensure the agency conducts user research before design. Only ~50% of companies do, so this is a differentiator. - Technical expertise
Confirm that they design for usability, speed, and accessibility. - Systems and collaboration
Good agencies have mature design systems and clear feedback workflows. Ask how they manage scope, iterations, and cross-team collaboration. - Team structure and seniority
Know who will actually work on your project and how senior designers are involved day to day. - Request a roadmap or pilot
Top agencies can outline milestones, timelines, and expected ROI.

How can I find the best design company on DesignRush that fits my budget?

| High budget: $50,000 & up |

What questions should I ask before hiring a US design company?
Some of the questions you should ask before hiring one of these companies, are:
Relevant Background
- What industries do you have the deepest experience in?
- Have you worked with companies at our stage (startup, scale-up, enterprise)?
- Is your team fully in-house, or do you rely on contractors or offshore talent?
Services and Processes
- What design disciplines do you cover in-house?
- What does your end-to-end design process look like, from discovery to delivery?
- How do you incorporate user research and data into design decisions?
- How do you collaborate with product, engineering, or marketing teams?
Related to Your Project
- How would you approach our specific design problem?
- What’s a realistic timeline for a project like ours?
- What deliverables should we expect at each phase?
- How do you measure success for a design engagement?
Sources
DesignRush sustains a directory of over 40,000 agencies categorized by service category, location, expertise, and reviews. We build our database in two ways:
- Our dedicated team of agency experts actively searches the web for top-performing companies. We then pull information from their websites, online presence, and client testimonials to verify their status and qualifications prior to listing.
- The agencies listed get notified of their profiles on the website and they can choose to claim it or not, which suggests their availability for more collaborations.
Agencies can also reach out to DesignRush and must go through the verification process prior to being listed.
Why companies trust DesignRush
Every agency is independently vetted before it can be listed or ranked
