The Challenge

The task was to do a website redesign that looks modern, has an upscale feel while adhering to the AXIS brand guidelines.

The information hierarchy had to be redesigned to let users know what’s more important and what’s less. The navigation had to be made accessible for the users to quickly find what they need from a multitude of offerings Axis provides.

Our Solution

Desaturated imagery with the AXIS Brand’s Maroon color and the big-bold text was the direction we chose after multiple design explorations.

This approach allowed us to create a decluttered, premium look and feel with a focus on key messages and central UI elements.

We created a comprehensive style guide to ease future design and development for maintaining the overall customer web experience a consistent and pleasant one.

OUR PROCESS

The project was centric to visual redesign. The information architecture was largely kept in-tact to retain user familiarity. However, we made some recommendations around information arrangement to define hierarchy and some layout improvisation to place key elements in more prominent zones.

We introduced a clean, clear, visual design focussing on the elements and content that matters. We coupled desaturated lifestyle imagery with iconography to draw users' focus on the crucial elements. The aesthetics were designed to look and feel clean, minimal, and modern.

The web screens were redesigned to adapt smoothly in the mobile view for delivering a seamless experience across devices.

Typography

Lato

Lato was a font being used by AXIS as their go to font in various of their websites. We also therefore used the same to maintain an overall brand consistency across its digital assets.

Colours

Login

A contrasting white card above the monochrome background helped in making the login form stand out and remain prominent.

New Registration

We implemented a multi-step, progressively disclosed form for new investor registration to prevent the users from information fatigue.

Resources

The resources section was decluttered by keeping only 5 relevant articles that made the most sense to the core user personas.

Mobile Screens

Shubhchintak

Apart from the Axis MF website, AXIS wanted us to experiment with modern design, a design direction that would be different from their Brand Visual Design for the customer-facing website of Shubhchintak, a tool for Independent Financial Advisors.
We came up with a design language that made use of illustrations, vibrant gradients, and lots of clean space to evoke a sense of modern and minimalist design. Each illustration was custom made to fit for the message a given section on the site was trying to communicate.
For sections where illustrations weren’t essential, we used an infographic and typographic approach while retaining the style of gradients to make the section concise as well as beautiful.
