Web App Problem Artek's Webstore wanted to notify customers when a product of interest was available in stock.   Solution We designed and developed a small application that connected Shopify inventory with Mailchimp data based via a proxy database.

Website Problem Artek lacked of a US website but also wanted to be able to sell locally to end customers and not only to retailers.   Challenge We needed to get approval from Artek's Headquarters in Finland on every step we made from the design perspective and we had to stick as much as possible to the European style.   Solution We recommended to work with Shopify as the scope from a selling perspective and the size of the company wasn't that big or complicated.

Based on their current needs there was no need to build another solution, plus that could help to drive all traffic directly to their domain as they were just very new online.   Role Interaction Design, UI Design, Project

Website Problem FLOS USA was in need of building a US based online store.   Challenge FLOS is a high-end lighting design company that has its headquarters in Italy. Stakeholders were the main challenge as to move away from a catalogue site to an e-commerce experience which was the main goal for the US directive. We also had a technology challenge as we had to stick with NetSuite as their inventory software and also web development platform.   Solution The solution needed to be approached in phases to introduce conversion in baby steps. As part of these phases the basic audience was first targeted: End Consumers, as other type of audiences were part of the plan but for future iterations. The screen capture showcased was designed and developed for NetSuite understanding the limitations of such technology at that time. This solution introduced to FLOS a CRM plan, as well as a Trade program  and Design News, all created in-house. All initiatives
