UX & UI design

For Lovable Apps, Websites & Digital Products

UX/UI design is more than just pretty screens

ArcTouch’s world-class product designers create digital experiences that provide both utility and delight at every step. Our design mission is to create lovable digital products that deepen users’ connections to your business or brand. You don’t get many chances to make a first impression — and design plays a huge role in how users perceive your app and your brand. Contact us to talk about your design needs.

There’s a perception that user-interface (UI) design is about creating beautiful screens. That helps, but the most important aspect of app design is user experience (UX). A pretty UI can’t solve problems as a thoughtful UX can.

So, how do you design a great UX?

We start by understanding your business goals and the user’s needs and then find the intersection between them. This becomes the project’s reference — serving to align every member of our team on a path to success.

Designing a beautiful and effective UI

Once the UX foundation is created, we dive into user interface (UI) design. The emphasis during this phase maps back to the specific user problems and your project’s business KPIs. Screens must be beautiful, but, more importantly, the key elements on those screens should drive people to the intended goal.

User testing through rapid prototyping

Is our design truly solving a user problem? The best way to find out for sure is to do user testing and get validation before we get too far into development. Graphical prototypes help us rapidly identify high-level UX problems and gain actionable feedback on detailed UI features.
