Based in Seattle, Sense Method Media is a web design studio founded by designer and instructor Lincoln Mongillo. We create simple, useable interfaces balanced with a standards-based methodology.
Sense Method Media, LLC is an agile (read: tiny) web development firm created on a wintery day in December of 2002 and based in Seattle, Washington. Our firm specializes in all the core facets of web design, development, and emerging technology and aspire to give our clients and their audience a great experience. Over the years, this site has evolved to collect various aspects of our work from design, development, photography, and publications. Our brand name arrived to us by Constantin Stanislavsky, creator of the Sense Method acting technique, from his belief that truth, beauty and realism comes from the senses. It is from this that we've honed a guiding principle on how user experience should be governed: through the senses and intuition. We believe that great user experiences a only available through an all inclusive engagement of the audiences senses. In this, we aim to provide a true multimedia experience for every user of our products.
We're small by design. Attention to detail, trust and accountability is easily understood and gained in this manner. We keep our working relationships close, allowing for one-on-one access and try to avoid overwhelming our clients. Yet needed, a larger network of designers are developers at the ready.
Mongillo is a User Experience Designer, PHP and Ruby Programmer, Web Standards supporter, and Flash developer specializing in fusing coding, interface design, usability, marketing, and business logic to create great user experiences. His role as Lead User Experience Developer with Starbucks sees him working on capitol projects, such as product conceptulization & design, Web Development and Kiosk design.
In addition to his work at Starbucks, he also acts as an instructor for the University of Washington Educational Outreach on a variety of courses on Web Application Development and Multimedia both in the online and in-class format.

His background includes work in film, motion graphics, and editing; as well as degrees in Comp Lit and studies in Art History. He’s been known to enjoy Arsenal Football from time to time and ups Leeds if they’ll ever return to the Premiereship. He is a well above par golfer, which is worse than this sentence makes it sounds. He is downright awful with his 7 iron but makes up for it with amazing lag putts. He is a failed filmmaker, but is passionate about making the web an interactive emotional landscape where video, interactivity and data are seamlessly integrated.
