Testimonials
Adrian is one of the best colleagues I’ve had the privilege of working with. He is knowledgeable, hard-working, reliable, and has great attention to detail. During our time working together, I always knew I could rely on him not only to handle the task in front of him, but also to see the bigger picture and find the right solution to the actual problem. He is thorough, thoughtful and really passionate about his work and the quality of the final result.
Adrian is also a very patient and empathetic person who can find common ground with almost anyone. He is especially good at guiding and mentoring junior team members, always taking the time to explain his thinking and help others grow.
As a multidisciplinary designer, he has an impressive range of skills. I could rely on him across many different types of projects, from web design to complex multi-page print materials. Most importantly, he is always developing, learning, and looking for ways to improve his skills.
It was a real pleasure working with Adrian, and I would be very happy if our professional paths crossed again.

I've worked with Adrian for more than 5 years a variety of projects, including print, web design, and UI/UX. No matter the project type, Adrian has always spent a lot of efforts to ensure they look perfect and meet all clients' requirements. Not only that - he usually gives helpful and valuable advices to clients, making their products even better than expected.
Apart from a lot of designers out there, he also has the appropriate education and background, which by greatly influence his entire work and the final results. I'd also like to emphasize on the fact, that he constantly improves his skills and knowledge attending various courses and lectures, thus staying ahead in the field. I've often wondered how he manages to combine both work and this constant improvements
Without a doubt, Adrian would be a great member of any team and would contribute for the achievent of excellent results and production of real masterpieces. It would be a real pleasure if we can work again on new projects, regardless of their scope and nature!

I found the team to be highly professional and responsive. The level of detail and complexity they present me with shows that they understand my business and my priorities, and are focused on helping me meet my commercial objectives - it's always the essentials only, not an arbitrary "third choice so that I had to choose from three options". I trust that they can make anything possible, but that they will also just help me make the best decisions for my business. I am sure my projects feature among the least creative, or challenging, from their perspective, but am never made to feel like they are less than vital, and worthwhile, by Adrian and Stanislav.

Worked on many projects together with Adrian. It's a pleasure to work with him, as he can create nice designs in Figma, Photoshop or whatever tool and then implement it in CSS. Adrian is very easy to work with responds quickly and communicates very openly and proactive, which makes it very easy to work with him.

He's always diving into every task or project he's up to. His suggestions to clients are always keen, accurate, and lead to better final results. I totally recommend Adrian and It St Technology Ltd. as trusted partners for every business.
