About Nuova

Nuova is a design agency built for founders who want clarity, momentum, and a team that feels genuinely invested in their product. We work the way founders work, hands on, fast-paced, plugged in, and deeply committed.

Clients tell us they feel like we’re part of their team because we don’t stand on the sidelines. We sit in the chaos with them. We untangle complexity, simplify what feels overwhelming, and design in a way that blends business logic, product thinking, and human clarity.

I'm Robert, one of the two leading people behind Nuova.

I’ve always been someone who enjoys understanding how things work. I like conversations with substance, clear thinking, and people who genuinely care about what they’re building.

That’s probably why I naturally gravitated toward this kind of work.

When Adelina and I started Nuova in 2021, we had no grand plan. We simply wanted to build things we’d genuinely be proud of and work with people in a more direct and human way, that for us means good work, honest communication, and real involvement.

If we work together, you’ll probably notice pretty quickly that I’m very straightforward, very involved, and that I care a lot about doing things properly.

Co-founder & Senior product designer

I'm Adelina, the other half of Nuova and the one responsible for how everything looks and feels.

I lead the creative direction and my work is about how companies are felt, not just seen. I treat every brand as if it were my own, because the companies we work with deserve that level of care. They're building something meaningful, and I want to make sure the world sees it that way.

I’m also someone who gets very immersed in creative work. Once I understand a company and the people behind it, I want everything to feel aligned and genuine to who they are.

I think that’s why clients often tell us working with Nuova feels different. It’s professional, but personal. Structured, but very human.

And that balance is very important to us.

Our beliefs

We believe great work only happens when there’s real partnership behind it, the kind where trust is earned, communication is effortless, and everyone cares about the outcome as much as you do.

Quality over quantity

We keep our client list intentionally small so we can show up fully. Fewer projects means deeper focus, sharper thinking, and outcomes we’re genuinely proud of. Every detail has a purpose and every project gets the care it deserves.

Driven by outcomes

Pretty screens don’t build companies, outcomes do. Conversions, clarity, retention, momentum. That’s what we design for.We hunt for friction, uncover opportunities, and improve the moments that matter. Growth rarely comes from one big redesign, it comes from consistent, smart iteration.

Deep involvement

We partner like co-founders. We’re a small, focused team that is small on purpose. The people you talk to are the ones designing, thinking, and shipping the product. We co-create with you, shape ideas together, and adapt our process to fit your reality.Nothing we do is templated. Nothing is one-size-fits-all. Your product is unique, so the way we build it should be too.

We're selective because the work demands it.

We choose our clients as carefully as they choose us. Every project we take on becomes a reference for who we are, and we take that seriously.
