Project Scope

A premium client project that included designing a complete system with 80 screens, comprehensive market research, and high-quality standards. The work was done by a team of 2 designers in close collaboration with the Product Manager.

80 Screens β€’ 160 Hours

Complete system including specification, UX, UI, Design System and interactive Prototype

2 Months β€’ 2 Designers

Professional team: Lead UX/UI Designer + Junior Designer

Investment: $15,000

Including market research, competitor analysis, and full professional delivery

Why Invest in Design Before Development?

Professional development costs from $50,000+. Interactive design saves time, money, and enables investor funding

Market Research Prevents Costly Mistakes

Without research, you're reinventing the wheel and making mistakes already tested. Research of Slack/Teams/WhatsApp saves months of guessing and expensive fixes in development.

No UX = No User Experience

App without professional UX = confused users who leave. Clear flows ensure users understand how to use it - less support, more retention.

No UI = Developers Work Blind

Developers without precise UI screens guess everything: colors, sizes, spacing, interactions. Result? Endless questions, delays, and expensive fixes.

Design System = Months of Savings

Without Design System, every component is built from scratch - double or triple work! With Design System: build once, use everywhere. Saves months of development.

Prototype = Raise Money Before Code

With interactive Figma Prototype you can pitch investors and show a 'live' product - before investing $50,000 in development! Many of our clients raised funds with Prototype alone.

Find Issues Before Code

Found a flow problem? In design = 10 minutes fix. In code = hours of work + costs. Prototype lets you test everything before writing a single line of code.

Project Overview

The Design Challenge

How to create one unified interface combining chat, email, and calls without overwhelming the user? The challenge was balancing numerous requirements (80 screens!) with simplicity of use. Additionally, ensuring all features are technically feasible - not every 'pretty' design can actually be developed. Market research of Slack, Teams, and WhatsApp Business helped understand what works and what doesn't.

The Design Solution

We developed a comprehensive Design System enabling consistency across 80 screens. Divided the app into 5 main modules (Chat, Email, Calls, Support, Settings) with clear navigation. Every component was designed with technical feasibility in mind - weekly meetings with developers ensured the design was implementable. Result: Interactive Prototype that went through 3 revision rounds and received full approval.
