We needed to design a brand identity including logo and graphic codes with applications in packaging and the website, taking into account the focus, which was the story behind each object or communication. In this case, the branding complemented this focus.

We are definitely satisfied with the result. The team understood what we needed and they worked closely with us, which was crucial for the correct development of the project.

The project took two months, with meetings at the beginning to provide an understanding of the company and our long-term business model. Then we spent a month working together on branding with an in-person presentation, and finally a month of weekly meetings to fine-tune the branding.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Gonni worked closely with us throughout the entire project. The presentation explored each brand element in detail, there was even a branding video that was made, precisely capturing the mood of the brand.

Not really. We were truly satisfied with their capacity to understand our vision and translate it graphically. It took a lot of interaction but we were very satisfied with the end result and there was true value in their work

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Plored is a web and mobile fashion platform that allows users to upload their best looks, tag the brands that made each item of the outfit, and get discounts for purchases and each like received.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Gonni Agency?

We asked Gonni to design the web platform from scratch. They were put in charge of prototyping and developing the complete user-flow for a digital product with completely unique functions. Both the design and the development were done continually, focused on a responsive design that would be compatible with the wide spectrum of available devices.

What were your goals for this project?

Redesign the entire UX for both desktop and mobile interfaces. Put in place basic branding elements.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

A friend that works as a UX director in a software company recommended that I speak with Gonni.

Describe the project in detail.

Design a desktop and mobile MVP from scratch that would enable us to validate the business model, find investors, and test with early adopte

What was the team composition?

There was one project manager throughout the entire project, two front end developers, and between two and three designers.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Honestly, there were no measurable outcomes because there was nothing to compare it to, this was the first MVP. But I can say that they did a very good job in the timeframe that we had, especially since the platform had a business model that was not common for this time (2012) and the layouts and interactions had to take into account new user functionalities.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

It was very fluid, we had meetings every 15 days, both in-person and online, in which the Gonni team presented their progress at a wireframe level. This allowed us to incorporate certain functionalities that we hadn't even thought about before beginning the project. The job they did was key, since they helped us to define the scope of the MVP. We were very satisfied with their work.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their understanding of the relationship between visual design and UX quality was impressive. They are things that 90% of the time, at a visual and branding level, software factories don't have. Gonni Agency is a team with incredible energy. They designed all of our website's User Experience, completely from scratch, and with great attention to detail.

Are there any areas for improvement?

None
