The goal is to help businesses build relationships with their online buyers through great design and technical performance. Moreover, the professional team at Shakuro helps the clients to remodel their online presence, appeal to a specific audience, and get financed. To do that, the unit relies on aesthetic design, hardcore development, and unstoppable business ethic.
Shakuro’s strongest suit is full-cycle web development. That means the clients can take a project from its initial idea, create the brand, design the experience, wrap it all in code, and launch the output. Shakuro has used the power of UI/UX design to help clients monetize their platforms better. The team has redesigned a website for Proko, an online drawing school, rebranded and redesigned CGMA, a professional CG art academy, redesigned a website for 3DSENSE, a leading 3D art school in Asia, and have a bunch of open-ended design projects.
