Silent Howl Studios is a user experience (UX) design and research agency.

Smart, efficient, and effective expansion of your product development capacity.

Silent Howl Studios was founded in 2018 in response to teams looking for efficient capacity expansion of their UX design teams and expertise.

Since then, Silent Howl Studios has supported dozens of clients on innovative and revenue-impacting projects including Sephora, Fenty Beauty, True Botanicals, Dolls Kill, and more.

We specialize in:

  • UX (wireframing, user flows)

  • end-to-end user research (personas, user interviews, data synthesis)

  • building UX systems for your team (review cycles, agile processes).

We have industry expertise in e-commerce and DTC retail, and also have successfully developed projects in health tech, backend B2B software, and more. We pride ourselves on clear communication, on-time project delivery, and professionalism.

Our team is led by Makiko Harris, who has 8 years of experience in UX and is known for her pragmatic approach to projects that balances customer-centric user experience with analytics and business metrics. Depending on project requirements, Makiko will build out a team to support visual design and development needs to meet your goals and timelines.
