Le Tapyr is a startup offering cloud-based portfolio monitoring software. It’s designed for single family offices aiming to attain real-time independence in managing their entire portfolio.
During the product's fast-paced development, the initial introduction of new features often lacked careful design consideration. This lead to a cluttered interface with suboptimal information presentation.
To enhance user experience, we needed to simplify and improve the main dashboard and single asset overview.
Additionally, we focused on selecting colors for a consistent and user-friendly look, ensuring a solid experience in both light and dark modes.
I led a discovery meeting with Le Tapyr team to learn about the business and it’s customers. I looked into other products on the market and I reviewed the current solution. I explored the app and looked for areas for improvement as well as it’s strong sides.
As the result, we could identify priorities and plan the work.
The app was using generic styles from front-end framework. It didn’t provide usable mobile experience and lacked implementation of UX design practices.
I made wireframes and basic prototypes to see how we could solve the problems I found during the UX and UI Review. I looked at different layouts and how to organize the information to help customers see everything clearly and work on specific tasks without any interruptions.
From what we knew about the users, they were evenly split between preference towards dark and light mode. Of course, we wanted both options to look sharp, so I created a color system that works well in both modes, while keeping accessibility and visual appeal in mind.
I helped Le Tapyr achieve strong and well-defined information hierarchy and UI structure in their product. By applying design system approach during our collaboration I curated guides and styles that can be applied to the whole project.
By changes in color palette and typography I improved the accessibility of the product and created a more cohesive and friendly experience for the customers.
This project was small and quick, and I’m proud of the result. By giving design attention and applying design principles to the complex product I helped to make it better. With less then 40 hours of my work, I provided consistency, structure and elevated the overall user experience.
