The product studio of Khakan Hayder
Design the right thing,
the right way.
Design the right thing,
the right way.
I spent six years at Google learning how to build for the world. My name is Khakan Hayder, and I started vconekt studio to apply those same rigorous standards to the founders building the future.
By keeping the studio small, I am able to lead the product direction of every engagement personally. Alongside a senior design team, we deliver high-velocity work across product, web, and brand identity.
We design products, websites and brands.

I spent six years at Google designing products for over a billion people.
I started Halaska Studio to bring that same level of craft to the teams building what comes next.
