Making the things we wantedwanted
Dekoboko Studio is an independent design and software studio in Sapporo. The work follows curiosity first: build the apps, tools, and games that feel worth having, then share the ones that might be useful to someone else.
Selected work
Apps, tools, and games from the studio.
Some are practical utilities. Some are small experiments. All of them started with something that felt worth making.
Studio notes
Independent, curious, practical.
The studio makes products from personal need and taste, with client work reserved for projects that fit the same sensibility.
Built from wanting it
The starting point is usually simple: this should exist, or this should feel better than it does. That personal stake keeps the work honest.
Privacy by default
Each application keeps data collection narrow. Offline-first is the preference whenever the product can support it; accounts and servers are used only when they add real value.
Small and complete
A focused product beats a crowded one. Features stay when they make the core task easier, calmer, or more reliable.
Contract work
Client projects are welcome when there is room for careful design, practical engineering, and a clear product shape.
A small studio for useful products, experiments, and games.
Dekoboko (凸凹) means bumpy or uneven in Japanese. The name is a small reminder that good products often begin as imperfect sketches, not a full brand manifesto.
The important part is what happens after the first sketch. Test the idea, keep the useful character, and make the experience clearer with each pass. Messages still land close to the work, which keeps feedback direct.
