Industry Experience

Software & Internet
    Hotel Adler
    Gasthaus Adler, Hotel in the heart of the Black Forest. The website translates this spirit into a refined digital experience that feels as welcoming as the inn itself. Challenge: A digital home for a place that lives on tradition. The Gasthaus Adler needed a website as warm and inviting as its rooms and kitchen โ€” one that would translate over a century of hospitality into a seamless digital experience, attracting both restaurant guests and hotel visitors while staying deeply rooted in the Black Forest aesthetic. Result: Luxury restraint meets German Gemรผtlichkeit. A dark, editorial website pairing Cormorant Garamond's refined serifs with crisp Lato body text. Antique gold accents carry the warmth of candlelit evenings through every scroll, and the structure prioritizes three key actions: dining reservations, room bookings, and discovering the story of the Adler.โ€ฆ
    WeberHaus
    From Paper to Pixel โ€” the showroom experience was broken. Challenge: One app, two form factors, zero manual re-entry. Sales consultants were writing down article numbers by hand and re-entering data into multiple systems, while customers couldn't visualize their choices until weeks later. The solution needed two form factors (tablet for the consultant, phone as a companion), a German-language UI built on the WeberHaus design system, and a full user journey from empty cart to exported offer. Result: Scan2Configure for WeberHaus. Scan any sample in the showroom and the item is recognized instantly. Inline dependency validation catches conflicts before they become problems. A live 3D preview stays synced to the house model in real time, and a one-tap PDF offer is ready to share before the customer leaves.โ€ฆ
    Aura
    MVP for an e-commerce app โ€” rooted in nature, designed for everyday living. Challenge: Designing a product about a safe experience, not just a purchase. Aura isn't only a product but a controlled and supported experience โ€” each user receives a personalized dosage recommendation and access to support at any point during use. Result: A grounded identity rooted in simplicity and nature. The outcome is a state of relaxation without panic, a subtle shift in perception, and fresh thoughts without a loss of control. After the initial experience, users build trust in the app as a safe, thoughtful, and mature product rather than a risky experiment.โ€ฆ
    LatChat
    Latvian - it's easier when you're around your own people. Find people with similar interests and practice Latvian without fear of making mistakes. Challenge: Practicing Latvian in a live conversation, in a group of like-minded people. LatChat combines short, practical lessons (5-15 minutes) with safe networking โ€” quick search for conversation partners by age, level, and interests, text and voice chats with AI-assisted grammar suggestions, and reliable moderation. Result: A mobile app for learning Latvian, built specifically for Russian-speaking residents of Latvia. Users get a unified "safe space" that combines short, topic-based microlearning with proven networking features to overcome the language barrier โ€” practicing not only 1-on-1, but also in groups.โ€ฆ
    EchoSpaces Landing
    Transform product presentations into interactive 3D experiences โ€” with direct CRM integration, GDPR-compliant, and developed in Germany. Challenge: The landing page was created to coincide with the global launch of EchoSpaces, an online application that informs B2B customers and fosters a shared understanding of what's being built beyond the office walls. The language is simple and clear enough for anyone to grasp what makes EchoSpaces' work unique. Result: A dynamic brand designed for performance. Clean, uncluttered colors and an immediately intuitive interface. The design is modern, focused on photography and open space. The copy is written so beginners aren't intimidated but instead feel inspired to try โ€” the core impression is "I can do this too."โ€ฆ
    Blutspende
    Redesign for "Spendeblut beim Roten Kreuz" โ€” inspired by people, made for people. Challenge: Without movement, we remain in place โ€” let's move together. This isn't just a design change, it's about attracting a new audience. Improving the old interface makes it more user-friendly and beautiful while giving a glimpse into the future. Result: For potential users, design is part of the service. If an app looks dated, it subconsciously transfers that feeling to the perceived quality of the medical equipment at the blood center โ€” even if it's state-of-the-art.โ€ฆ
    Doctolib
    User experience research for strategic improvement โ€” without optimizing the app, Doctolib risks losing new users on the first screen. Challenge: Simplifying complex digital journeys. Users experience difficulties finding a doctor through the mobile app, which slows down the search process and can cause confusion. This research identifies simple, high-impact improvements to the experience. Result: A smart system for a bold digital future. Improving the doctor search function is critical โ€” users often get lost when entering their specialty and don't immediately see results. Without optimizing this step, Doctolib risks losing new users on the first screen.โ€ฆ
    DEKRI Fitness Studio
    DEKRI is a premier fitness studio located in the heart of Germany. Challenge: Translate DEKRI's physical luxury, dynamic energy, and refined training philosophy into a sophisticated digital platform โ€” an exclusive, minimalist, and highly functional website that reflects the studio's premium positioning while delivering a seamless booking experience. Result: An immersive digital sanctuary that mirrors the studio's philosophy, where discipline meets elegance and movement becomes art. From discovery through concept and UX/UI design in Figma, the project followed a focused, strategic workflow balancing beauty with performance.โ€ฆ
    LightLab
    A step-by-step online course for those new to photography. Challenge: Reflecting performance in every detail โ€” simple language, practice from the first lesson, tutor support and assignments with feedback, all presented on a single, stylish landing page. Result: A fast-paced brand built for performance. Clean, minimal colors with an emphasis on photography and free space make it immediately clear what to do next. The tone is written so beginners feel encouraged rather than intimidated โ€” the core impression is "I can do this too."โ€ฆ
