At Futurelink, we are focused on a stage-by-stage approach that guarantees seamless collaboration, a sturdy software foundation, and high-quality end product results. We tackle all stages of the website development process.
01
UI/UX research and concept
We connect with you and your stakeholders to get an idea of the app's vision and project goals. Our design team conducts extensive research on best practices, user behavior in your industry, and closest competitors to develop the best goal-driven user experience. We define clear goals for both the end-user and the business.
02
Wireframing and prototyping
Once the design roadmap is in place, we create wireframes to provide visualization for the application. The wireframes are then turned into prototypes. We work closely with you to develop interactive architecture prototypes that will impress everyone involved in your project. At this stage, we choose the right colors, typography, and fonts to produce the most appropriate layout.
03
Testing and validation
This helps us identify issues before it's too late and validate ideas as they are created. With our prototypes, we can quickly conduct usability tests, which allows us to iterate our ideas/prototypes. We test our prototypes as best we can before handing them over to the delivery stage. This is our way of eliminating as many risks as possible.
At this point in our design process, we start the visual design of the web and mobile solutions. This is where we apply what we've learned from stakeholders and begin to explore ways to develop consistent and scalable interfaces. All decisions regarding the visual design of the user interface are documented in the user interface style guide that standardizes the grid system, layout, color palette, typography, iconography, logos, and images.
As a final step, we implement and revise the design. While the detailed design process aims to collect all the vital information so that the designer doesn't miss anything, sometimes new details are introduced during production. This is inevitable simply because the production effort is often a complex process. Bridging the gap between design and technical issues creates a better product, and this is what we struggle to achieve.
