A clear identity. A coherent product experience.

A recognizable identity. Interfaces that make the next action clear.

Your brand, website and software should speak the same language. CHRD brings visual identity and interface design together to make your business recognizable and your products easy to use.

A consistent identity. A clear experience.

We identify what prevents people from understanding your offer or using your product.

Your brand looks different across channels.
The screens look good, but the intended action remains unclear.
Every new feature introduces another navigation pattern.
You want to validate a concept before funding its development.

A visual direction across different uses

These examples illustrate the studio’s work. Belvédère is a concept; demonstrations are not presented as client commissions.

From identity to interfaces

Create an identity, clarify a journey or evolve a product.

Brand foundations and visual identity

Positioning, voice, logo, colours and typography: the elements needed for a consistent identity.

Journeys and UX/UI design

Organize information and actions. Plan screens, confirmations and errors across desktop and mobile.

Interactive prototypes

Make a journey navigable to gather feedback and resolve confusion before development.

Shared components and rules

Bring buttons, forms, tables and visual rules into a consistent foundation for the product.

Files, formats, components and reviews are defined in the engagement. CHRD or your team can handle development.

To turn journeys and prototypes into a functioning product, explore our custom software and portals.

Recognizable and easy to use

Every choice should support your message and your users’ tasks. A beautiful mockup should also lead to a clear action.

Recognize: A consistent visual vocabulary across your website, product and communications.
Understand: A readable hierarchy, concrete labels and navigation that matches expectations.
Act: An identifiable primary action, understandable states and clear feedback after each interaction.

If your main need is your public presence, explore our work on websites and e-commerce.

Design decisions you can review

Understand the audience and product
Review the offer, usage, materials and constraints.
Define the direction
Validate visual principles and priority journeys with real content.
Prototype and refine
Explore screens, collect feedback and resolve confusion.
Prepare for use
Hand over files and rules. If CHRD builds the product, verify their implementation.

Explore our process

What design scope do you need?

Materials, journeys, variants and reviews determine the budget. We prioritize what will be useful in the first delivery.

The proposal separates identity, interfaces and development. A prototype validates an experience; it is not yet working software.

A clear agreement before we begin.

The investment: The proposal separates creation, third-party services and support. Displayed prices are in Canadian dollars (CAD), unless stated otherwise.
What you receive: Deliverables, access, ownership and acceptance criteria are defined in the agreement.
The first step: A conversation about your needs. If the project requires further study, we propose paid scoping with defined deliverables.

How we work across borders

Your design questions

Do we need a new logo?

No. We can keep your identity, clarify its rules or improve only the interfaces. The need guides the decision.

What is the difference between UX and UI?

User experience (UX) organizes what someone seeks and accomplishes. User interface (UI) gives form to screens and interactions. They are designed together.

Can you hand the design over to our developer?

Yes. The engagement can include files, components, states and behaviour notes. Documentation and implementation support are agreed together.

Can we test before development?

Yes. A prototype lets you navigate screens before development. User testing can be scoped, including recruitment and organization.

How do you account for mobile and accessibility?

Readability, contrast, hierarchy and controls are considered during design. Keyboard access and other interactions must then be verified in the built product.

What needs to become clearer?

Show us your brand or product and what you want to make clearer.

Discuss my project

No commitment for the first conversation. We clarify the need before proposing an engagement.
