Data Analysis

Instead of making design decisions by intuition or thoughtless convention, evidence-based design is a structured process where designs are grounded in meticulous fact-gathering and rational methodology. Product development becomes reliable and the usability intimately reflects real life.

What’s the best colour for the light of the knob on our medical device?

Neurobehavioral responses triggered by light exposure encompass improved alertness and performance. fMRI studies have demonstrated that daytime exposure to blue light, when compared to green or violet, is more effective in enhancing responses to a memory task in several cortical, thalamic and brainstem areas.(Source)

Exposure to blue-enriched white light during daytime workhours improves subjective alertness, performance, and evening fatigue.(Source)

Short-wavelength light is a powerful agent that immediately attenuates the negative effects of both homeostatic sleep pressure and the circadian drive for sleep on alertness, performance, and the ability to sustain attention.(Source)

The effectiveness of the lightbar in transmitting guidance information can be improved by replacing the presently used red LEDs with blue LEDs.(Source)

Empirical research grounds design decisions

Designs are supported by facts and research, so they achieve their intended effect. From simple questions about colours to major dilemmas about how entire features affect task performance in challenging environments.

A well-structured design process brings stakeholders together as it gradually generates informed solutions.

When the user experience reflects user needs to such a high degree that it feels seamless, the device stops being a distraction and users can focus on what really matters in the moment.

Enhance usability, propel innovation, and lead your product to excellence with this approach.

Gain competitive advantage with design thinking

Vague value propositions become concrete through actual design work. The process reveals intimate aspects of the users' needs. Building a product that is actually useful has the power to focus an entire business on operations that bring rewards.

Incite desire in buyers

Shift marketing from the uphill struggle of persuasion battles to demos where the product's excellence is self-evident.

Offer meaningful value to users

Reduce errors, enhance safety, improve user productivity, support accuracy and decrease the cognitive demand on users.

Spark pragmatic innovation

Discover unmet needs and field new ideas in a systematic way. Integrate insight from multiple sources to develop fresh products.

Simplify product development

Discover blind spots and form a consensus among stakeholders. Code a modular interface with documented logic.

Unburden support teams

Lower the number of support queries and the likelihood of user mistakes that require expensive maintenance.

Ease the onboarding experience

Reduce purchasing hurdles, enable global distribution and save your customer stress every time they hire new staff.

Navigate the uncertainties of embedded interfaces

Develop a structure of effortless user flows

Guide users through the shortest path needed to complete their goal. Map potential pain points and integrate solutions that support users. Bring all flows together in a coherent navigation structure that is logical and reflects the mental schemas of users.

Engage users with meaningful interactions

Purposeful interactions make people appreciate and enjoy the use of a device. They also express genuinely useful information in a way that gracefully fits human expectations. Offer your users a refined experience that satisfies both emotional and cognitive needs.

Leap from ordinary to extraordinary

Client Challenge

Mechanics have to instantly understand the information on the screen.

This GUI design gives car mechanics real-time feedback on eight parameters as they fine-tune the wheels. The simple layout and vivid visuals bridge the tactile experience of mechanics with their visual perception.
