Game-Changing Technology, Reimagined for Everyone: Klab’s Digital Experience

k.LAB’s digital presence was fragmented, limiting its accessibility to technical users only. The website struggled with a high bounce rate, unclear information architecture, and inconsistent design, making it difficult to communicate the platform’s potential to a broader audience.

We adopted a user-centered design approach to rebuild k.LAB’s digital identity:

  • Strategic workshop to identify key user personas.
  • Information architecture and user flow redesign, creating intuitive and accessible navigation paths.
  • Wireflow and wireframes to prototype solutions based on user needs.
  • Development of a scalable design system with a modern, consistent visual identity, as showcased in the shared visuals.
  • Interactive prototypes to test usability and gather iterative feedback.

The goal

Our goal was to transform k.LAB into a seamless and accessible digital ecosystem, ensuring it could reach diverse user groups and align with its vision of integrated and sustainable modeling.

Key Outcomes

  • Enhanced Accessibility: Broadened the platform’s audience beyond technical users.
  • Increased Engagement: Traffic grew, and the bounce rate significantly decreased.
  • Eco-Friendly Design: Optimized the website’s environmental footprint using sustainable practices.

Four desktop mockups show the different sections of the k.LAB homepage.

The optimized design and layout of the homepage ensure clear content hierarchy and thematic section distinction, enabling efficient navigation for users. The homepage serves as a gateway, providing seamless access to all other site pages.

Two desktop mockups show examples of the card-based layout.

The card-based layout optimizes page length and enhances navigation. It allows users to quickly access key information.
