Thinkigy is an independent digital design studio built around clearer thinking.
Thinkigy is an independent design-led studio founded and led by Joshua Russell, a Minnesota-based product designer and art director with more than 12 years of experience across digital products, websites, branding, and campaigns.
I started Thinkigy around a simple idea: good design should make things clearer. Whether that means simplifying a complex product, helping customers understand a business, or creating a stronger visual identity, the goal is the same — thoughtful design that solves the right problem.
Clients work directly with me from early thinking through final design, with additional development or specialized support brought in when a project calls for it.
Senior-Level Attention
Every engagement gets hands-on senior design involvement from beginning to end.
Direct Collaboration
Work directly with the designer doing the work, without layers of account management or unnecessary handoffs.
Values
Clarity
We turn complexity into experiences people can understand and use.
01
Thoughtfulness
We ask questions, understand the problem, and design with purpose rather than decoration.
02
Collaboration
The best work comes from open communication, shared ideas, and working closely together.
03
Craft
Details matter. From strategy through execution, we care about making the work feel considered, cohesive, and complete.
04
Let's make it clearer.
