n!Fuze R2 Visual & interaction design clean-up
Why are we doing this? Properfunctioning doesn’t mean there’s not room for improvement in the UX.
Goals While preserving all existing marketing and functional requirements… • Create a brand-oriented design direction • Deploy a systematic visual and interaction language across all platforms simultaneously. • Bring the interaction and visual design up to best practices across the board • Create a style guide
Dev and QA: Don’t Panic We won’t do this every release.
Step 3: Moodboards Step 1: Keywords Step 2: Image research Step 4: Direction
Today R2 Stronger product identification and value proposition on sign in panel More space given to marketing messaging to encourage trial/purchase.
Today R2 More efficient use of vertical space for navigational elements Number of primary colors in palette reduced from five to two, reducing “fruit salad” effect and increasing overall legibility. Line spacing increased for better readability More use made of rollover states to include additional information and commands
Today R2 Filtering behavior standardized across add-in, web. Space provided to display results count Display space optimized to show more models simultaneously Icons redesigned for more simplicity, appropriate metaphors, and more family resemblance
