Design Research

The AI Landscape

As a starting point, we reviewed already existing major AI products. We spotted visible trends that are becoming quite common in the design of these products: the use of vibrant colors, gradients, and “magic sparks.” It is also quite common to enhance the user experience with motion and micro-interactions.

Design Process

The Design Workflow

I was involved quite early in defining our AI assistant. We considered quite different approaches, from a humanoid assistant up to a more abstract look & feel. I came up with different designs under the umbrella of the ImmoScout24 brand look & feel.
Brand Essentials

Logo & Naming

We decided to take the route of creating a sub-brand for the AI assistant. The name itself, HeyImmo, evokes an energetic appeal and invites users to start exploring.

Core Elements

There are three main elements that consisting HeyImmo brand personality: gradient glow (aura), circle and stars. Each one has a different function and brings a different meaning to the HeyImmo personality.

Gradient Glow ‘Aura’
I use clouds made of our brand colors to create an ‘Aura’ glow. It illustrates an universe of market data that behaves like a living thing — unpredictable and chaotic.

circle

Circle
The circle frames a safe space where the thinking process can happen.

stars

Stars
The stars represent the core elements of HeyImmo, evoking extraordinary abilities. This is a common feature that defines the properties of AI.

Applications

While providing clear initial rules, HeyImmo look and feel is purely flexible, allowing broad extension in its application. The aura with the glowing color can be used as a “highlighter” or as an element of the brand identity.

Landing Page

I took part to the concept, design and development of the launch landing page. It serves as the main entry point where users can start prompting with the HeyImmo, learn about its capabilities and clear its doubts through the FAQ section.

Micro-interactions

To enhance usability and user delight, I helped define micro-interactions for the assistant. The animated aura highlights its unique capabilities and ensures it stands out within the ImmoScout24 environment.
