As always,
Usability is critical

We base our UX solutions on research findings and have achieved a 400% increase in revenue of online sales after implementing them. Our UX/UI designers have worked on many marketplaces and know the best practices in the market.

Usability Heuristics
Nielsen heuristics is our guiding star, whenever we create designs.
Ready-made UI kit
Not only does it help to speed up development, but helps to keep everything consistent.
Easy navigation
We use breadcrumbs, topbar and a sidebar to make it very easy to find the needed items.
Accessability Standards
Our designs make use of the contrast of fonts and elements, as well as the use of different means to transcend information, not just colour.
Smart Layout
We understand that people scan for information, that’s why we design pages that are very easy to skim read.
