UI & Product
Staying true to our digital origins
We’re using our rounded UI-Shapes as parts of our UI. To Highlight content, information or to bring across a point with an icon. They’re used to make information standout and are natural parts of our layouts.
Brand and software. Happily together at last.
We believe great brands live through even greater adaptation in UI/UX design where they enter the daily lives of people using our service. There should be no gap really. So we use card designs for content bits, sliders and galleries.
Showing sleek
tech at work.
Let’s show the product with the quality it deserves.
Not all screenshots and software elements need to resemble the software 100%. Often it’s more about users understanding the underlying concepts and interactions. So show them, highlight them, be proud of them.
Real UI elements can be extracted and highlighted.

- taking up more than 2/3 of the layout
- the image bleeds off on one or more sides of the layout
