Our solution
Drayton’s products are renowned for quality, reliability and technical excellence. Our creative challenge was to turn the nuances of the physical product into a digital user experience. Through a collaborative brand workshop, we articulated the product’s vision, values and personality which gave birth to the brand name; miGenie. Intuitive, modern and simple – these values formed the blueprint from every aspect of design, to development and build.
We took an agile approach to app development, with frequent client participation and acceptance. Within 6 months, Drayton were able to demonstrate an early version of the app at an pivotal trade show to gauge interest, while road testing the user experience. We can’t wait to see what Drayton customers think of the Apple Watch version.
