Brand and product studio, based in Abu Dhabi.
Senso is a brand and product studio working with ambitious organisations across Abu Dhabi and the wider UAE, from strategy through to launch.
Abu Dhabi moves fast. Brands need to keep up. We build the strategy and design systems that hold.
Building brands for a maturing market
Abu Dhabi's economy is diversifying quickly, and the organisations driving that shift need brands that reflect genuine ambition, not just regional convention. We work with clients here who are building in financial services, culture, real estate and technology, and the brief is almost always the same: make this feel world-class. That is the standard we design to.
One studio, two time zones
Our Abu Dhabi team works alongside our studio in Manchester. That means clients here get the strategic rigour of a British design culture and the local knowledge to navigate the Gulf market. Deadlines, handoffs and reviews happen without the friction that remote-only agencies introduce.

What we do
Before anything is designed, it's decided. Positioning, research and brand architecture that give every decision after it a direction.
When the experience is the product. UX and UI for websites, platforms and apps, researched, prototyped and tested for the people who'll use them.
From first wireframe to shipped product. Websites, apps and design systems built to be maintained, measured and grown.
The operational layer behind the brand. CRM, automation and integrations that keep growing teams fast and organised.

Frequently asked questions
We have a team present in Abu Dhabi, so client relationships here are handled locally. Workshops, reviews and onboarding meetings can all take place in person, and we coordinate directly with Abu Dhabi-based stakeholders throughout a project.
We work with growth-stage businesses and established organisations across sectors including financial services, real estate, hospitality, and technology. Most clients come to us when they need their brand or digital product to compete at a higher level, whether that is a rebrand, a new product, or a full identity and website build.
Projects are scoped and priced in GBP or AED depending on the client's preference. We work on fixed-scope engagements rather than day rates, so clients know the full investment before anything starts. Typical brand and web projects range from AED 75,000 for focused engagements to AED 350,000 and above for full identity and product builds.
