How effective was the workflow between the yova team and FIFTYSEVEN?

“The joint way of working was highly effective. It was shaped by strong work sprints, highly original design sessions and deep discussions.

What did you find most impressive or unique about FIFTYSEVEN?

“Two things:

FIFTYSEVEN's level of dedication blew us away. We were not easy partners who always had strong opinions. But so did FIFTYSEVEN. Their designs and concepts were well thought through and in many instances they convinced us to trust their thought leadership. We never regretted it.
FIFTYSEVEN's originality. We never had any generic ideas in the project.”

Are there any areas for improvement?

“Given its importance, it was an intense project. But we would not change anything about it as we are very happy with the results.”
