Project Mapguide

Challenge

Together with Autodesk & DM Solutions (fusion technology), a UI design company was needed to create five, unique styles that would cater to the diverse Autodesk clientele on an international level. The Autodesk program suite, called Mapguide, would be a web-based software suite that would bridge the UI gap between Europe, Asia, and North America.

Tactics

  • Valid Programming Languages, including HTML, CSS and PHP
  • User-Friendly Site Architecture / Functionality
  • Optimum File Compression
  • In-depth, web application design (web 2.0/ web architecture)

Results

The designs were extremely well received both internally and in each of the target markets. Less than a year later they are already being implemented around the world.

“The feedback today in Denver was awesome. We are now in Vegas for 2 groups tomorrow. Most of the people at the end felt that the product concept was either from Google or Apple, which is a compliment.” Sara Makarenko, Senior Product Designer at Autodesk
