It's time to start dribbblin'

We all start small. This is especially true for designers, for whom growing a business, or even collaborating with other humans, can present a significant challenge. The founders of Made Tight – we – began our careers as eager freelancers and reluctant team members at other people’s companies. As fate would have it, it was exactly our previous work experience and collaboration with many other, magnificent people, that helped us become what we are today – a team, small but determined, seasoned enough and eager to develop its own ideas.

In fact, the name of our agency derives from a phrase embedded into our brains by the man we used to work with a lot. He would always probe us to extract our best work by saying: “Is this tight enough? Could you make it tighter?” And so we did.

2016 was a defining year for us, we quit our previous jobs and founded our own firm. In a matter of months, we completed more projects than most small teams can handle. We didn’t sleep much, but we learned a whole lot. Our inaugural year was a motherload, but it was also a great success – in 2017 we aim to grow and be better in business; our first New Year’s resolution? To finally start posting stuff on Dribbble! Also, our new website is almost done – subscribe at http://madetight.com and be the first ones to receive the notification about the site’s launch!

We wish you a happy and productive 2017! 🎊
