Not only has ZAZU been an incredible creative partner to work with, but the way they articulate their vision prior to, and during the creative process is unlike anything I have seen before. They are concise, timely, and extremely multidimensional artists. They tailor each project to elevate the clients' brand in a professional, yet trend-conscious manner, and their innovative outlook on the creative industry in general, puts them far ahead of other brands that do the same genre of work. They take the time to understand your brand and your vision for your brand, and they deliver far beyond your expectations. Very professional, very talented, and would definitely recommend working with them.

The team at ZAZU effectively executed a large swath of creative projects I needed under a tight deadline. These are all things you expect out of a well managed Creative Studio.

Their output gave me concrete gains in completing the larger project at hand, I simply can't recommend them enough. Will use again, 100%.

We have been working with the Zoyes team for a number of years and everyone on their team is amazing to work with! Zoyes was instrumental in the rebrand of our company from Gem & Colony Events to Forbes Hospitality and helped reposition our brand in the Detroit market and it increased our lead generation immensely. The team worked on all aspects of the branding from building our new website, logos, collateral pieces, signage, etc. Every ask, no matter the size, is met with a prompt response and clear communication from all members of their team and the quality of work delivered from everyone on their team is top tier. I highly recommend Zoyes for all of your creative needs!

Zoyes Creative delivered an exceptional website that exceeded my expectations. Jill, Joey, Marielle, and Alec showcased outstanding talent, professionalism, and creativity throughout the project. Joey’s innovative design and vibrant colors created a bold, engaging site, with their artistic use of typography design and layout adding a perfect finishing touch. Jill’s exceptional project management, clear communication, and patience kept everything on track and within budget. Alec ensured seamless performance across devices with lightning-fast load times. When I provided AI-generated images on the second-to-last day, they handled the late addition with remarkable professionalism, seamlessly integrating them despite the tight timeline.Compared to quotes from other high-end agencies in New York, Chicago, and LA, Zoyes offered competitive pricing and delivered work that stood out as my favorite. Their collaborative approach and responsiveness to feedback resulted in a professional, unique, and highly effective website. Within 48 hours of launch, I booked three serious opportunity quotes—a significant increase from my usual 3-4 per month.I’m thrilled with the results and wholeheartedly recommend Zoyes Creative for top-tier design and exceptional service!

We’ve partnered with Zoyes Creative on numerous projects over the years, and they continue to impress every time. The team is not only deeply creative and full of fresh, edgy ideas, but also incredibly prompt, kind, and easy to work with. Their rebrand of the Chicago Board of Trade Building was a game-changer—helping to reposition an iconic landmark that ultimately became a two-time recipient of Office Redevelopment of the Year. Zoyes brings design expertise, strategic thinking, and genuine passion to everything they touch. Can’t recommend them highly enough.

Consumer IoT Review from Mason Ferlic
GripFusion is a sports technology startup developing Tactile Intelligence. Our flagship product, the ForceBall, is the first grip-sensing baseball. We approached Atomic Object with the challenge to build a React Native iPad app to connect with the embedded electronics over BLE and visualize sensor data in real time. Atomic stepped up to the plate and hit a home run! They took early R&D code and we're able to successfully navigate IoT challenges, large amounts of sensor data, and seamless UX. The developer team worked closely with our technical staff to incorporate evolving firmware and hardware improvements. The design team did hundreds of hours of user discovery and product feedback to ensure we deliver a cutting-edge experience. Overall, Atomic has the breadth and depth to tackle complex hardware-software systems.

As a freelance Video Producer, I recently wrapped up another fun project with the folks over at Atomic Object, and I've gotta say, it was an experience worth mentioning. Collaborating with their marketing team on a series of authentic and engaging customer-facing and internal videos was nothing short of fantastic. Their seamless planning and logistics during pre-production, coupled with easy going personalities during production, made the process a breeze. Post-production brought our collective vision to life with meticulous story editing and videos that reflect their unique culture and values. Their team's dedication to kindness, empathy, and diversity made this collaboration not just successful, but truly enjoyable.

How long does it take to complete a product design project in Michigan?
It typically takes 1-12 months to complete a product design project in Michigan, depending on the complexity, functionality, and production requirements. The complexity of the project is one of the drivers that affect the timeline of a product design process, specifically:
- Simple product (1-3 months)
Products with few components and straightforward functionality have a shorter engineering, designing, and manufacturing timeline. - Complex product (6-12 months)
Projects with more detailed designs, numerous components, novel technology, or advanced features will naturally take significantly longer. Creating test versions for complex products can also take months, especially if they need special tools or molds. Making a mold alone usually takes about two months.
Beyond the core product design and prototyping phases, these other factors can add time to the overall project duration:
- Revisions
- Tooling production
- Laboratory testing
- Manufacturing setup
How much do product design companies in Michigan charge for their services?
On average, product design companies in Michigan charge $100 to $10,000+ for their services, depending on the following factors:
- Industry type or niche
In Michigan, automotive, medical, and industrial products typically demand higher pricing due to strict compliance, safety requirements, and advanced engineering tied to these sectors. - Design complexity
More complex products require advanced modeling, simulations, and multi-disciplinary expertise, increasing overall cost. - Prototyping needs
Building multiple iterations, functional models, or production-grade units still adds significantly to the budget. - Tight timelines
Projects with tight launch schedules require accelerated timelines, overtime resources, or parallel workflows, which can result in premium pricing. - Regulatory requirements
Product designs that must meet standards such as FMVSS, FDA, or ISO 13485 require additional documentation, validation testing, and design iteration, increasing the cost. - Level of design involvement
Full-cycle design support naturally costs more than one-off services, such as prototyping or CAD cleanup only. - Team size
Larger product design teams with senior-level experience typically cost more because they have niche expertise and industry experience.
