Challenge

Project Goals

After collaborating with us to create a shiny, brand new Desktop App for its users, simFlight decided it was only fair to offer their vendors the same treatment and completely redesign the Vendors Platform for a more functional, stylish and improved version of itself.

Design Elements

Project Colours

Color Palette

Following our work in the Desktop App, we respected the brand’s legacy color palette: the blue and white combination that beautifully symbolizes a plane flying through the sky.

Project Typography

Typography

We chose this neutral, flexible, sans-serif typeface, for optimal legibility.

Project Icons

Iconography

We adapted the Desktop App icons, for inter-platform consistency.

Design

Components

We adapted some of the Desktop App’s components for branding consistency and created new elements that gave the Vendors Platform a more contemporary look.

Design

Grid System

In order to achieve a solid design layout, we used a simple 16 column grid with a 20 px gutter that allowed each product card its own space. The grid allowed us to place text, images, and functions in a consistent way throughout the design, for all viewport sizes.

Platform

Become a vendor

Vendor registration is a simple and intuitive process so that vendors can spend their time where it matters: managing their flight simulation products.

Dashboard

The dashboard offers vendors a quick overview of the platform’s most relevant content.

Dashboard widgets

The dashboard is made of modular widgets, which gives vendors the flexibility to decide how to best display the information that is most important to them.

Platform

New Product

Creating a new product should be a quick and easy task for any vendor. For this reason, we made major usability changes to the existing flow so that it became more intuitive. One of them was the introduction of the “progress circle” in the Product page, which tells the vendor when each tab is completed.
