A small studio
designing brands
for the next Africa.
We are a six-person studio in Lagos designing brands and products for the operators building the next Africa.
Selected projects, 2024 → 2026.

Launch campaign
Studio retainer
Four phases. No mystery.
Scoping call
A 30-min call to see if we're a fit. No commitment either side.

Launch & review
Launch, plus a 60-day review where we measure the actual result.
“The best design partner we've ever worked with. Ova moves faster than teams three times their size.”
What operators say about us.
“The best design partner we've ever worked with. Ova moves faster than teams three times their size.”
“Ova rebuilt our product design system in five weeks. Two years later, we're still shipping on it.”
“Launch-week revenue was 3x our forecast. Not sure I can attribute all of it to the brand — but a lot of it.”
“Small studio, senior thinking, no juniors handling your account. Exactly what you want.”
“The strategy work alone was worth the price. Everything after was a bonus.”
“Ova is the studio we recommend to every founder we know. Full stop.”
