“KABO & PYDO studio’s designers demonstrate exceptional creativity, reliability, exemplary commitment, professionalism and creative intelligence. They’re able to predict trends and deliver what even the most demanding customers seek. The projects they have completed meet our expectations perfectly and are a cornerstone of our brand’s development.”

 

Rafał Słabik / Cellfast


“When I think about the KABO & PYDO team, the first words that come to my mind are commitment, interdisciplinary approach, excitement with the design process and transparency. As long-term partners, working on design audits, for example, we value their honesty and integrity in action, as well as their consistency in maintaining relations and following a set methodology. However, the key point is that, as a team, they are focused on building long-term partnerships, properly identifying the client’s needs and assuring the synergy of capabilities of all parties involved.”

 

Justyna Turek i Henryk Stawicki / Change Pilots


„The KABO & PYDO design studio has been working with us since 2013. The styles the team designed for us gave rise to a significant increase in the sales of our products. The KABO & PYDO team gets highly involved in the design process, diligently analyses the client’s needs, and pays great attention to the product’s function and ergonomics. Given our satisfaction with the co-operation, we can definitely recommend the KABO & PYDO design studio as a worthy and trusted partner.”

 

Jerzy Bujanowicz / AVANT Fabryka Porcelitu



“People are KABO & PYDO’s greatest asset. The company is a team of extremely competent and energetic people, who inspire everyone like no one else. I would recommend Katarzyna Borkowska and Tomasz Pydo to anybody who appreciates professionalism, great service and unique design.”

 

Anna Wróblewska / Metaphor / Concordia



“I admire Katarzyna Borkowska’s and Tomasz Pydo’s ability to build coherent collections of very different products that, in their entirety, come together to form a recognisable company image (Cellfast). Most of all, though, I appreciate their ability to use ergonomic knowledge in design work.”
