Who We Are

We are two creatives who are close friends and both love and are influenced by Japanese culture and media. We’re passionate about all mediums of design, and both spend copious amounts of time honing our skills because its what we love. Having similar passions and interests not only created a strong friendship, but inspired us to work together on various design projects. After producing unique work of a strong quality we realized we needed to start a company together, and “sugoii” was born.

“sugoii” or “sugoi” in Japanese is commonly used in the same context as “awesome, cool, amazing, and incredible”. The both of us having spent countless hours watching anime and reading manga encountered this expression a great number of times. It was a more than natural decision for us to choose this name when creating the company! We strive to produce “sugoii” results no matter the project or client.

Jassi Bacha

UI/UX Ninja, Responsive Web Designer & WordPress Developer

I’ve been devoted to Art & Design since before I could walk, and I’ve also been making websites since I was twelve.

Like a lot of people in the industry the majority of my skills have been self taught. I started with HTML in 1998 and then started using Photoshop, Dreamweaver & Flash throughout high school. Upon graduation I started post-secondary at The Art Institute of Vancouver and got a diploma for Interactive Media & Design which helped to refine my HTML/CSS and improve my control of the Adobe Creative Suite. I’m now equipped to handle design through development, and everything that’s thrown inbetween.

I’ve been an avid lover of Anime & Japanese culture since I was a kid and the influence that sugoii allows me to display feels like a breath of fresh air from a design standpoint which is super exciting in more than a few ways. So contact us and let me reinvent the web for you!

Cole Krahn

Graphic & Web Designer, Photographer

If you want to know a bit about me, I have to start by saying as big of a fan of Japanese culture as I am, especially the food, I’m just not too fond of cream cheese in sushi. Now that that’s out of the way lets get to the good stuff! I’m a graduate from BCIT and the Design & Web Development program, my specialties are graphic design and photography. I love edgy, thought provoking films, anime, comics, manga, video games, photography, and design that isn’t afraid to venture into unknown territory in order to invoke an emotion you may have never thought you’d feel. I want to experience and create new things, and meet new people. The world is alive and brimming with opportunity, me and Jassi are here to help you capitalize on that opportunity and improve the image of your company! If your interested in working with us, head over to our contact page and drop us a line, if not, I’m happy you took the time to get to know us, and best of luck out there in the big beautiful world!
