Digital projects, thought through end to end
We combine strategy, design, technology and operation into solutions that reliably meet demanding requirements.
Concept
Clarity before the first draft
Good digital projects begin with clarity. We analyse goals, target groups, content and existing structures. We look at navigation, conversion and editorial maintenance from the users’ perspective and use this to develop sound concepts for websites, platforms and digital systems.
- Analysis of goals, requirements and target groups
- Development of user journeys and usage scenarios
- Information architecture and navigation concepts
- Structuring of content, page logic and user paths (usability)
- UX design for outline concepts, wireframes and clickable prototypes
Design
Design that communicates with purpose
We translate content, functions and brand values into visual systems that are clear, usable and recognisable – on every device. Where there is not yet a viable brand identity, we develop one: from corporate design to digital design system. We carry existing identities consistently into the digital space.
- Development of corporate designs: logo, colour palette, typography and imagery
- Evolution of existing brand identities for digital applications
- Moodboards for visual direction
- Development of digital design systems based on the Atomic Design principle
- UI design for pages and templates
- Responsive layouts for desktop, tablet and mobile – designed to be accessible
- Style guides and design documentation
Development
Technology built to last
In development, we turn concept and design into stable, high-performance and maintainable digital solutions – based on modern technologies, clean architectures and the right CMS. We think beyond launch about scalability, security and further development, and bring in the experience from our own products.
- Technical concept and architecture of digital systems
- Frontend and backend development for websites, portals and platforms
- Development of complex systems with many user groups, roles, data sources and integrations
- App development for iOS and Android, e.g. with React Native
- Development with CMS such as TYPO3, Storyblok and Payload CMS
- Headless architectures, APIs and interfaces to third-party systems
- Product development – from idea to MVP to market-ready digital product
Operation & further development
Launch is just the beginning
Digital projects are never really finished. After launch, we make sure systems run stably, stay secure and can evolve with new requirements. We take care of technical maintenance, support, optimisation and feature development – in a structured, reliable way and with an eye on long-term value.
- Ongoing technical support for websites, portals and digital systems
- Maintenance and updates of CMS, frameworks and components
- Monitoring, error analysis and technical quality assurance
- Performance optimisation and continuous improvement
- Further development of existing features and modules
- Advice on new requirements, roadmaps and next stages of expansion
Getting started
Where do you stand today?
Not every digital project starts from scratch. Often there are existing websites, structures that have grown over time, technical debt or new requirements. We help clarify the starting point and define the next sensible step.
- Your website looks dated and no longer fits your brand, offering or target group.
- Navigation and page structure have grown over the years, and content is hard to find.
- Important user paths, forms or contact points are not reliably found.
- Your CMS or TYPO3 system is outdated, hard to maintain or needs to be rebuilt.
- Editorial processes are complicated, slow or too dependent on development.
- Performance, SEO or accessibility no longer meet today’s requirements.
- After launch, there is no reliable partner for operation, support and further development.
