Polymotions is a design studio for science and technical communications.
We use human-centered, multidisciplinary design to deliver absolute clarity for complex products and procedures.
We integrate industrial design, technical visualization, and strategic brand systems to de-risk product development and accelerate market clearance.
This integrated approach is essential for regulated industries like med-tech, where our core expertise lies at the intersection of technical fluency, human factors, and specialized visual design, ensuring your complex ideas are validated and communicated effectively in clinical settings, boardrooms, and competitive markets.
Our multidisciplinary approach helps us develop visual systems that address your specific challenges at every critical milestone, from securing initial investment to manufacturing.
Featured Project:
MyoStep
MyoStep is a soft wearable exoskeleton designed for children aged 4 to 12 with cerebral palsy. Moving beyond rigid traditional aids, MyoStep is a flexible, textile-based suit engineered to support natural movement and foster independence.
The design team was led by polymotions founder, Jess Russi, as part of an interdisciplinary collaboration at the Brain Machine Interfacing Lab. By working hand-in-hand with engineers, clinicians, and researchers, we took cutting-edge research, led by Dr. Jose Luis Contreras-Vidal, and shaped it into a user-centric system focused on both superior gait support and unparalleled comfort. With invaluable guidance from design faculty Jeff Feng, MFA, and Elham Morshedzadeh, Ph.D., we prototyped and refined MyoStep for its future in clinical settings.
Polymotions is a studio based in Houston, TX, founded by Jess Russi and supported by hardworking and immigrant women.
We bring a fresh perspective to complex products through systematic design thinking. Our approach combines technical fluency with creative problem-solving. We understand your ideas, products, and goals, and we focus on translating them into visuals that look good and are clear.
We love solving problems, drinking coffee, obsessing over Harry Potter, Acotar, pets, and designing things that matter. We partner with entrepreneurs and growing teams through scoped projects and flexible design support, while having a little fun along the way.
