and trends in the modern
creative industry
Lecture from Murat Mutlu,
the co-founder
Marvel is a fast-growing online tool which allows
designers to create prototypes of mobile applications
and web projects.
Marvel began as just a small startup that helped
product designers to link several screens into one
prototype. Last year they’ve received a big chunk of
investment and since then their growth has rocketed.
Murat Mutlu has a strong vision and tons of energy, that
gets everyone in the room immediately inspired.
He will talk about all the steps Marvel went through to
get to where they are now, from the initial idea to the
launch of their first version of the product, how they

they started.

famous for the rebranding of Airbnb, British Premier
League, Logitech and many others.

advertising strategy and not that many companies can
smoothly translate brands into the digital world. But
Design Studio are masters of digital branding language

and Asana. Their design team will talk in more detail

Styleguide and pattern libraries are a classical solution
for product development strategy. But this static
approach loses a lot of important details during each
step of the design process.

living styleguide can maintain quality of each individual
product and help teams to simplify
the design process.
