Concept Design
Concept design is where ideas take their first clear shape. Our product design team supports innovators in moving forward confidently from the earliest stages of product design and development, even when their vision is still forming.
Transforming Ideas into Concepts
Apollo Designs specialises in turning your ideas into working products. Our friendly team is here to eliminate the barriers between having an idea and starting the design process.
Concept design involves truly understanding your vision and creating solutions that balance function, aesthetics and manufacturability. We use tools such as sketching, 3D CAD modelling and visualisation, including VR demonstrations, to clearly communicate and refine the most suitable design direction.
This stage ensures your product is grounded in both creativity and feasibility before moving forward.

Frequently asked questions
What industries and design disciplines do you work in?
Apollo Designs works across a wide range of product design and engineering design disciplines. Our core experience includes industrial, automotive, aerospace and mechanical product design but we’re not limited to these sectors. If you have an idea or product outside these areas, we’re always open to discussing how our skills and process could support your project.
Do you work with individuals as well as companies?
Yes, absolutely. Our product design studio supports individuals, startups and established businesses alike. Our team structure and pricing are designed to be flexible, allowing us to tailor a scope of work that suits your project, experience level and budget.
Can you support just one stage of the design process?
Yes. While our product design services cover the full product development lifecycle, from concept design to aftermarket support, each stage can be undertaken independently. We are always happy to investigate how we can join a project at any point and tailor our support to what you need right now.
How do you approach project costs and budgeting?
We work collaboratively to define a clear scope and budget before starting. Our approach focuses on transparency and value, helping you invest in the right level of design support at each stage.
Do you help with manufacturing and supplier selection?
Yes. Through our trusted supplier network, we support our clients throughout manufacturing, including supplier selection, technical liaison and quality assurance. We can also provide the design documentation if you would prefer to select your own suppliers.
Do I need a fully defined brief before getting started?
No. Apollo Designs is set up to allow clients to come to us with early ideas rather than a complete specification. A key part of our role as a product design agency is helping you shape and clarify the brief so you can move forward with confidence.
I have a design question, can I get in touch?
Absolutely. We’re always happy to hear from people who are looking to get started in product design and engineering or who simply have a question they’d like to discuss. Please use our Contact page to get in touch with the team and we’ll do what we can to help.
What is the difference between a product design studio and an industrial design company?
A product design studio (or product design agency) is typically an end-to-end product development company, able to take your idea from concept design through engineering design and onto product manufacture so you can bring product to market. An industrial design company is very similar but usually leans more toward the look, feel and user experience early on. Apollo Designs is a product design studio with the capability to take on industrial design projects.
