Picture this: you’ve decided to work with us – and now, we’re sitting around a table with Danish pastries, about to embark on the product design journey of our lives. This is how the scene would unfold…
We always kick off by listening to you, which usually results in a deep dive into your goals and your constraints; then, we’re free to construct a clear plan to design and development.
By executing an agile approach to all of our work, we validate our decisions throughout our entire process:
We gather your requirements: business goals, user personas, key use cases, competitive analysis, industry best practices, site mapping.
This includes user journey mapping, UX audit, and a WCAG 2.0 accessibility check.
Depending on your requirements and the nature of your project, we can also offer user research. This includes qualitative and quantitative research, as well as unmoderated and moderated user testing.
In this stage, we design low-fidelity wireframes, design explorations and approaches, discuss visual direction, develop an UI concept of key screens.
During this part of the process, we create a high-fidelity clickable prototype, iconography, illustrations, and animations.
We deliver you an UI kit based on atomic design system, including design guidelines for your development team.
