Our Process

The first step involves gaining a thorough understanding of your needs and requirements. We pose the right questions to comprehend your vision, overarching brand, project goals, and the intended target audience. Working closely with our clients, we determine all the essential elements of their project.
Based on your requirements, we engage in brainstorming and industry research, focusing on your ideal customer base and competition. Subsequently, we create a detailed proposal and quote outlining the scope of work, timeline, costs, and any additional recommendations we may have.
Once we are confident in our comprehensive understanding of your project, we proceed to develop a range of concepts. These may include sketches, wireframes, mock-ups, and/or samples.
During this stage, we implement your feedback and begin to roll out the concepts into the finished project. Throughout this process, you'll stay informed with regular updates and will have an opportunity to provide a second round of feedback before final approvals (additional rounds of feedback are available when required).
Upon everyone's satisfaction with the completed project, we obtain the final sign-off from you, and depending on the project, we either hand over the deliverables or proceed with the launch!
Our ultimate goal is to develop close, long-lasting relationships with our clients, which is why we don't just disappear after the handover. We remain available to support you should you need further assistance with the project or additional projects in the future.
Our Team
Andy Abson

Andy Abson

Creative Director

Andy likes his coffee instant, often several times reheated, with extra milk please. On a typical Friday night, you’ll find him relishing in the company of his family or a few close mates on his outdoor deck, cheering on their favourite seasonal sport.

With a penchant for classic design, his favourite font is the timeless Avant Garde. While Andy’s most utilised office tool is InDesign, he also gives the microwave a good workout. Andy’s dream holiday would include the exploration of archaeological wonders somewhere fascinating like the Polynesian Islands or Mexico, and his favourite thing about Hindsight is the light-hearted banter and open collaboration which permeates his team, creating an environment where creativity flourishes.

Colleen indulges in a steaming mug of Chai, made with soymilk, to add a touch of warmth to her workdays. On a typical Friday night, you’ll often find her chillaxing at home with precious pup Cleo.

Her favourite program is Xero, but we also think she’s a bit of a wizard when it comes to Excel. She’s the Queen of the books and keeps a tight ship. Next up on her holiday bucket list is a luxurious trip to The Philippines and she says her favourite part about working at Hindsight is the phenomenal team that she proudly calls her own.

Adam’s favourite program is Adobe Dimension, but he also has the uncanny ability to fix any technical issue the team may be having, simply by walking towards the issue.

Japan is next on Adam’s Holiday bucket list, even if the thought of him leaving the office for an extended period has the team looking nervously at the printers. Adam’s favourite thing about working at Hindsight is the camaraderie between the staff, as well as the free-flowing creativity displayed by the team.
