PRODUCT DESIGN

Make your product easier to use.

Help people understand what to do and get it done. We work through the flows, screens, and details, then give your team a design system it can build and maintain.

Talk about your project

Make the important things easier.

Good design helps people finish the task in front of them. We start with where the experience gets confusing, slow, or difficult.

Clearer onboarding

Help someone understand the product and take the first useful step.

Simpler workflows

Make complicated tasks easier to follow and complete.

Consistent screens

Use familiar patterns so people don’t have to learn the interface again.

A buildable system

Components and behavior that carry through into implementation.

Work through the experience before the build.

Make the important decisions while they’re easy to change. Review a flow, try a prototype, and refine the details together.

  1. Understand the task

    Start with the people, their goals, and the places they get stuck.

  2. Map the flow

    Connect the steps and decide what each screen needs to do.

  3. Try the prototype

    Walk through the experience and test the assumptions.

  4. Prepare it for development

    Define components, states, responsive behavior, and implementation details.

From a task to a buildable interface.

  1. User journey
  2. Wireframes
  3. Prototype
  4. Design system

HADLEY

A simple contribution. A complicated system behind it.

Hadley wanted contributing to a child’s education savings to feel straightforward. We worked through the contribution flow and the financial systems behind it, connecting a clear mobile experience to the payment process.

A new product. Or a better existing one.

The starting point can be a blank page, a difficult workflow, or a product that has grown out of its original design.

Shape a new experience

Explore the key flows and screens before development.

Improve a difficult task

Focus the work around a specific part of the product.

Bring the interface together

Build reusable patterns and a coherent visual system.

Brand identity can be part of the engagement when the product needs it.
