The Design & Print Shop

What We Do

We focus on creating customised interactive experiences. Our creations respond to the unique needs of individuals, corporates or organisations. Each distinctive story reflects what they do and why they do it.


We work closely with our clients to showcase their product or service. Our presentations are user-centered, offering customers the intimacy and ease of functionality. This is essential to a satisfying and meaningful experience.


In short, we help them tell their story.

How We Do It

We started, some 30 years ago, with the philosophy of "doing good projects with good people". It may sound simplistic, but it's really a conscious choice that we made when we started. This determines how we run our business till date.

years of work
It means that we choose our jobs based on what kind of story a client has to tell.

Happy Clients
It means that when our clients call, we listen. It means that we only take on work that we have the time and motivation to finish, and finish right.

day at a time!
It means that we like going to work every morning.

INVOLVED

Every client receives the personal attention of our principals, who are actively involved in every story. Each project has a design and development team that remains consistent throughout the project.

FOCUSED

Our focus is on people rather than process. We don't overwhelm our clients with technical jargon, but we understand the need to communicate clearly and to demystify the technology for our clients.

RESPONSIVE

That being said, like any good, responsive design firm, we have a client-driven business model that structures the client's story. The client approves the design at multiple key points in the project's development, so all expectations are met.

Who We Are

Prabha & Harsha Koda constitute ADCOM.

The name is derived from Advertising, Design and COMmunication.

A couple of professionals with interdisciplinary backgrounds and talents, we hold no exclusive allegiance to either right or left brain, but rather have interests that span the creative and technical divides.

We think this helps us not only to understand the inner-workings of new media, but also to explain them to our clients, to best showcase their story.


Prabha Koda

Principal, Production & Kromatology

Prabha's superb skills in management and communication helps her handle production, coordinate schedules, tasks, and status reports. This does not stop her from exhibiting her creative excellence and attention to detail, especially when it comes to colours.



Harsha Koda

Principal, Design & Development

Harsha's brilliant work as designer involves graphic planning, interface design, and production. Having trained on-the-job, he is fluent with current developments and standards in graphic design & web technologies and oversees design from conception through implementation.


What We've Done

Bringing to the table over 40 years of combined experience, we have showcased our clients' stories by creating startups, developing branding and publicity, providing complete online solutions for marketing including designing websites & initiating social media.

Our repertoire also includes projects as varied as directing a television show, marketing an Indian film in the US, organizing corporate events like treasure hunts, adventure events like road trips, fashioning & fabricating restaurants & cafes, researching for the widely appreciated video mapping (sound & light) show at Ross Island, designing in-house publications and formulating a game show!

What They Say

It seems we have time and again exceeded the expectations of our clients and have formed long-standing relationships with many. We believe that the satisfaction and recognition we get from their work is timeless.

Several of our other sites have won the Golden Web Award by the International Association of Webmasters and Designers.

Here's what some of them have to say...

Prabha and Harsha are very creative and have out of the box thinking which makes our work look better. It’s an enjoyable partnership as they also take time to understand the individual personalities before designing.

Revathy Asha

Prabha and Harsha helped my book “Discovery of Japan” look most impressive with their superb design skill.

Experience of interacting with Prabha-Harsha combo has been like dealing with the proverbial In-Yo (or, Yin-Yang, as the Chinese put it) complementarities of business - organizing effectively and creating harmony! They build on shared concepts, quickly by creating content and style effortlessly. They’re a real pleasure to work with, as they take feedback positively and give an output that exceeds expectations.

1998 was a very early time for a dancer to have a cyber presence. I sensed the potential and needed a partner who understood my creative impulses. Prabha and Harsha Koda provided the perfect synergy between imagination and discipline.

It was a pleasure working with Prabha and Harsha Koda for over 18 years since 1995... their understanding of the requirement and creation of simple and effective website contributed to Jeevan's effort in creating awareness on blood donation.

Working with the Harsha-Prabha team on the Hammock website was very invigorating. Came up with quite a meticulous layout, an eye for detail, appealing designs and flexibility to accommodate additional changes & most of all, on time delivery! Thank you once again.

At SCARF's Film Festival Prabha & Harsha ... took over most of the activities... took on responsibilities voluntarily. They have a very healthy, happy attitude towards most things, and above all gave us a feeling of confidence and security. They made my life easier. Thanks to them.

Prabha & Harsha have this uncanny quality of curiosity as they allowed us to share our work, ideas, plans etc. while gently asking pertinent questions that made us think. We are very impressed by their work product and style as they were spot-on in capturing SPASTN's core work and values.

I have known the Kodas right from the time my company was formed in 1994. Harsha and Prabha have been involved in the creation of our WEB site and maintaining it. The couple is very good in concept visualizing and innovativeness. Work has been normally completed in time and to our satisfaction. Requesting as many changes as we require do not hurt them and we are very satisfied with the outcome of the project.

There is something called fashionable... something called trendy... some are cheap... some are out of reach... Harsha and Prabha's work would fall into a category called Classic. They not only designed my website but actually taught me the ABCs of the internet. For me when I began toying with my first laptop, Harsha was... and still is my "SOS"... "phone a friend"! In this fiercely competitive world, I stand strongly my ground thanks to techno savvy and loyal friends like Harsha and Prabha.

We are very happy with the way the web site was designed by Harsha and Prabha Koda. We have worked with them earlier during several editions of the IConS of SCARF - from 2004. It is important to note that, unlike some previous developers that we had worked with, their knowledge and understanding of what we require from the website made it easier to work with them. They were always available to take our calls and updates on the website were always done immediately on receipt of information from us.
