Branding definition

User Research

We use a combination of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews to gather detailed demographic data from our users. This data helps us build comprehensive user personas, scenarios, and understand their goals and frustrations. By combining quantitative insights from the questionnaires with qualitative depth from the interviews, we ensure that our personas and scenarios are grounded in real user experiences and accurately reflect the needs, motivations, and pain points of our target audience.

Design System and Style

We created a design system that would not only build the consistency but also save time for the future job. This will improve the overall process and experience for the application.
