Brody Bikeservice

Brand Development & UI Design

Project overview

From a renowned E-Bike manufacturer to a specialized bicycle service – Brody stands for service readiness and repair options for every bicycle and situation. Brody Bikeservice offers various services that need to be clearly presented on a website.

Freiburg emerges as the first location where Brody Bikeservice is based. Later on, partner workshops will be added, allowing users to choose from multiple locations.

Goal

Creation of a modern, minimalist website characterized by a clear brand identity. The brand aims to convey speed, transparency, and flexibility while maintaining a youthful and professional appearance.

The booking of services is facilitated through an external iFrame provided by a Swiss agency.

Role

Brand Developer, UX & UI Designer, Visual & Motion Designer, Design- and Development team with Nikolas Klauser

Tools

Adobe Creative Suite, Miro, Figma, WordPress & Divi

Duration

June-August 2022

Logo Design & Brand Development

The color scheme and name were chosen by Brody itself to create a clear identity. The italicized logo symbolizes fast and efficient service, while the “Bikeservice” addition highlights the core competency. Two bicycle chain links serve as the key visual element and can be used independently of the logo.

With the modern Ubuntu font, Brody exudes professionalism, progressiveness, and a tech-savvy approach. The emotional aspect is primarily expressed through communication and photos, aiming to establish a strong connection with customers.

UI Design

The UI design of Brody Bikeservice was developed in close collaboration with regular discussions and the use of Figma. Special attention was given to the booking iFrame, which needed to be easily and quickly accessible.

To make the differences between the three services (Workshop Services, Video Service, and Express Service) easily understandable, each service was given its own subpage, which was restructured in the optimization process after the launch. The content was divided accordingly, and FAQs were individually tailored to each service.

Additionally, informative pages such as “About Us” and “Blog” were moved to the footer to focus on the essentials while still providing access to important information.

Icon Design & Motion Graphics

The implementation of icons and motion graphics for Brody Bikeservice was aligned with the corporate identity to effectively convey the benefits and services and enhance the user experience.

A total of four motion graphics were created: one for the general process and one for each service, providing a visually explanatory guide. Desktop and mobile versions of the animations were developed to ensure optimal display on different devices.

Learnings

The most important insight gained was that it is an ongoing process that always allows room for improvements. It is crucial to keep usability and a pleasant user experience at the forefront. Another important aspect is careful navigation naming, as it significantly influences user guidance. These enhancements will undoubtedly be carried over to future projects as well.
