Ofspace 5-Year Journey of Design (Creativity, Growth, & Startup Successs)
Hip Hip Hooray!
Happy 5th Anniversary to Ofspace Digital Agency!
Yes, Ofspace has made it through an amazing five years in the design industry! To celebrate, we’d like to take a quick look back at the highlights of these five years—just a five-minute recap of all the big moments.
Throughout our 5-year journey, we rolled out a variety of design hiccup, and we got to engage lots of happy customer faces along the way.
Our never ending story from 2019 to 2024 is a five-year adventure, filled with hard work, dedication, and the excitement of crafting dreams come true. Here is our tale from startup to industry as it may lighten up some ideas to inspire the apprentice.
How It All Started?
Ofspace began as a shared vision between two friends and freelancers—Sheikh Al Raihan, Co-Founder & Head of Design, and Surja Sen Das Raj, Co-Founder & Creative Director.
Long before they were co-founders, they were simply two designers with a passion for creativity and a dream of building something great.
The Inspiration Behind Ofspace
In 2019, the idea of Ofspace started to take shape. The founders wanted to build more than just a business—they wanted to create a hub for innovative design. They dreamed of a space where designers could collaborate, learn, and grow.
Their goal? To take design beyond their freelancing roots, from local projects to a global stage, working with startups and established brands alike.
The mission of Ofspace was clear:
‘’ To help companies become leaders in their field by providing future-proof creative services. From UI/UX to graphic design and web design to branding, Ofspace is driven by providing organizations with vibrant visual communications. Ofspace aim to create designs that inspire creation and drive a research-led revolution across industries, from new-age startups to global leaders.’’
They weren’t just offering design services—they wanted to be partners, helping startups grow every step of the way. With complementary skills and a shared passion, they set out to create something more than a typical agency.
Finding Our Unique Value with Shekh Al Raihan
In a crowded field of design agencies, standing out is both a challenge and an opportunity. His vision was clear from the beginning to shape brands that stand out through future-proof design. His approach was simple: design that connects, inspires, and solves problems.
He believes that, “Design should connect, inspire, and solve problems,”. He brought structure to Ofspace’s services and defined the core areas of focus, including UI/UX, branding and web design.
Ultimately, our Head of Design’s leadership has been key to Ofspace’s growth, establishing the high-quality standards our clients trust.
Strengthening Client Relationships with Surja Sen Das Raj
Our Co-Founder and Creative Director, Surja Sen Das Raj, has been instrumental in building lasting partnerships. For him, every project is a partnership with the client. To him, clients are more than customers—they’re partners.
He believe that “A successful design isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about understanding the client’s vision and delivering solutions that drive their goals,”.
His passion for process and teamwork led to the development of an open, collaborative culture at Ofspace. With defined workflows and project management strategies, he ensure that every client experience is seamless and positive.
From Friendship to Partnership
On November 2, 2019, They took the leap from friends to co-founders, launching Ofspace with a commitment to meaningful, effective design. They knew this was more than just a business; it was the chance to build something they both believed in.
Five years later, that friendship—and their shared vision—continues to drive Ofspace forward.
Our Idea of the Perfect Agency
From day one, Founders set out to create more than just an agency—They wanted to create a home for creativity. Here’s what they believe makes the perfect and best design agency:
- Valuing Team Well-being: They create a supportive environment that values each person, offering flexibility with no set lunch hours, and benefits that genuinely enhance work-life balance.
- Specializing in Design: They don’t try to be everything for everyone. Instead, They focus on being exceptional at specific services.
- Honest Communication: They believe in transparency, both with clients and team, always aiming for clear and constructive feedback.
- Client-Centric Focus: The founders strive to exceed client expectations, never restricting requests and always looking to add value.
- Relaxed, Comfortable Environment: They’ve designed the studio to feel like a second home, creating a welcoming space for both (team and clients).
- Technology and Innovation: Their workflow leverages the latest tools, allowing for a seamless, efficient work process that enhances both productivity and creativity.
- Friendship and Collaboration: More than colleagues, all are like friends, united by a shared passion for creating impactful designs.
The Name of the Agency
The name "Ofspace" came from a simple but powerful idea: to create a place where a creative agency meets a co-working space. The founders wanted to build a community for freelancers. A place where they could work in a professional setting but still enjoy the freedom of freelance life.
The goal was to bring together talented people from different fields under one roof. Allowing them to network, learn, and collaborate on exciting projects.
"Ofspace" perfectly captures this vision, representing a space that’s open, creative, and welcoming for anyone looking to grow.
The Evolution of Our Logo
The First Logo (2019)
Our first logo was styled as "Ofs-ace." It symbolized both structure and openness, representing our idea of a space where creativity and community come together.
Present Logo
The new logo is modern and simple, showing how Ofspace has grown from a co-working concept to a digital agency. This clean design reflects our focus on creativity, professionalism, and innovation.
Our logo tells the story of our journey—from an idea centered on physical space to a best design agency that makes creativity and collaboration part of every project.
