Viget Labs is a full-service web consulting and development firm headquartered in Falls Church, VA with an office in Durham, NC. We've been at it since 1999 and have earned a solid reputation as a rare firm that does both great design and development work when building award-winning web sites. We work with early-stage web start-ups (e.g, Squidoo, Odeo, RateItAll, and a few we can't talk about yet), as well as mature businesses (e.g., Choice Hotels and Sodexo) and non-profits (e.g., National Geographic, PBS, EarthEcho). Our UX team provides a range of services - including research, strategy, and design - to those clients. When we can, we also share our methods and our opinions on our UX blog.
