UI/UX design for High-End Business Software

Through design, research, and a genuine understanding of your needs, our UI/UX team creates the best possible experience with your digital product. We excel particularly in business-critical specialized applications where large amounts of data, processes, and user roles converge.

Design Process

Understanding Complexity, Simplifying Interfaces

We are experts in designing complex business web applications. Rather than simply designing the user interface, we delve into your data, processes, and user roles—because that’s the only way to create an interface that truly works in day-to-day operations. To achieve this, we follow a clear process, from analysis to final implementation.

Audit (UX)

We analyze your target audience, your digital products, and the usage context. From this, we derive the requirements.

Methods: Design brief, customized workshop formats, user research

Developing & Sketching Ideas

Together, we develop initial solutions and wireframes for complex workflows—quickly, iteratively, and based on testing.

Methods: Low- and mid-fidelity wireframes, design retrospective workshops, user testing

Design & Implementation (UI)

The final UI is created based on validated concepts. If needed, we develop an entire design system for your specialized application.

Methods: High-fidelity designs in Figma, design systems, user testing

What we offer

UI design

  • User interface design
    We create detailed visual design mockups and prototypes from your ideas, wireframes and existing style guides. This shows how the final page will feel and behave. The design of the pages is developed in an iterative and agile process.
  • Accessibility
    It is particularly important to design your digital services and products to be barrier-free, ensuring accessibility for all users, regardless of the devices and platforms used.
  • Design systems
    We work with the principles of atomic design, in which all elements are broken down into their smallest units, such as fonts or HTML tags, and stored. This modular approach increases the consistency, flexibility and speed of design development.
  • Prototyping
    The high-fidelity prototypes we often work with in the later phases are highly functional and interactive. They are very well suited for final usability tests.
  • Icon design
    Customised icons enhance the aesthetics of the user interface and also contribute to better usability. They also increase the recognition value.

UX design

  • Consultancy and analysis
    We support you with a UX audit, web analytics and a benchmark check. We use tools such as Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics or Matomo to identify potential in your existing website and compare you with your competitors.
  • UX strategy & user research
    We identify the needs and behaviour of your target group as well as the various usage scenarios through interviews and surveys as well as user journey maps and empathy mapping, giving you a clear picture of your current and potential target group while opening up new perspectives.
  • Information architecture
    With the help of coherent site maps and a comprehensible navigation concept, we create the basic structure of your digital presence. The aim is to use suitable methods, such as card sorting, to structure complex information so that content can be found quickly and intuitively. The use of user flows and wireframes helps to visualise the first drafts.
  • Prototyping & usability testing
    The development of a low-fidelity prototype allows visualisation and iterative optimisation of the information architecture and content design. During the usability tests, potential users work on specific tasks. We use the feedback to make further improvements.
​Case Study

UI/UX for a High End Life Cycle Assessment Platform

Together with GREENZERO, we developed a custom design system that integrates inventory analyses, comparison views, and reporting into a consistent, easy-to-understand interface. This transformed previously fragmented processes in Excel and LCA databases into a unified, intuitive platform.

In this project, we developed our own design system together with makandra. The UI/UX team did a fantastic job there.
