Design Challenge

ITmaestro team and Alice K analyzed competitors and popular sites. Based on benchmarking and experience, a unique style was developed that highlighted the project from the first moment of launch. One of the wishes of the client was to use very little text, so UX/UI design Alice K focused on working with graphics. To get the WOW effect, animations were developed, which took a lot of time.

Research

The task was to develop a promo site for the largest blockchain community with an emphasis on the visual component and a minimum of text.
1. After the briefing of the client, similar sites and competitors were analyzed. Advantages and disadvantages are revealed.
2. After that, a wireframe and prototype of project were designed;
3. Alice K and ITmaestro team moved on to visual design, development and animations;
4. The site has been tested for usability on different types of users (and on different devices), as a result of which errors were found and eliminated (in order of priority) that made it difficult for users to achieve the goal.
5. Also: usability tests, system load, site loading speed, support for all popular devices and other important tests and studies are regularly conducted.

Inspiration

Blockchain is a very rapidly developing field and it was incredibly interesting for ITmaestro team to work with it. This area is the future. UX/UI designer Alice K wanted to make a dark design using modern styles therefore applied glassmorphism and geometric fonts.
Result:
A dark interface has been designed, a horizontal scroll on the computer version of the design has become a feature, which you can hardly find anywhere else, and very unusual graphics combined with the minimalism of dark interfaces.
