Wellbeing starts from your mind

Sblam webapp
Project Il benessere che parte dalla mente

Company bio

Sblam is the platform that transforms the care and well-being of one’s mental health into a simple and usable activity, in any daily context.

What we were asked

We have collaborated with Sblam team since the early stages of the project. We have been in charge of Research activities: in defining personas and use cases, Design: in defining branding, in drawing up the user flow of the wireframes and the graphic interface and Development: both Back end and Front end of the platform. We focused in particular on the following activities:

👉 Define in detail the use cases and user flows to leave nothing to chance

👉 Define a unique logo of its kind, with attention to scalability and mobile readability in the first place

👉 Design a user experience for the product that was naturally intuitive, with great attention to contrasts and use on the move

👉 Develop a scalable and performing webapp and an architecture that could host thousands of users simultaneously

What we did

We started in the first instance with the drafting of the use cases and user flows. Within two weeks we had consolidated the functionality of the platform and we started a co-design phase to better structure the product wireframes by defining the structure of the web app.

At the same time we worked on branding: focusing in particular on the style of the brand’s illustrations, with the aim of having a friendly and playful result to illustrate the Journeys and all the contents present within the platform.

We have therefore started the UI design phase, based on the visual identity and on the previously defined guidelines.

The development phase involved the back end and front end team which in just 4 weeks created the entire platform including the customized administration area, for loading all the contents.

What we loved about this project

Sblam was certainly a very interesting test in the e-learning sector, which we know well by now. We have been able to treasure past experiences in the design and programming of the platform, consolidating and improving the skills useful to face a similar project.

After all, “we work to surprise, otherwise we repeat ourselves”, said a proverb.

How does glueglue work and what are the areas of expertise?

We always start with a careful analysis of the customer's needs considering not only the product needs but also the medium and long-term business objectives.
As a first step, we often deal with the visual identity, evaluating the positioning by analyzing the competitor and identifying areas for improvement in terms of branding and image.
Then, we move on to the UX/UI area: we study the user experience of your product or service through a UX Review with 3 dedicated professionals to identify the points which it is necessary to act to improve the usability of the site or app examined.
In the following phase, we design the User Journey Map, i.e. the map of all the paths that the user follows, interacting with the product and the brand . Identifying all the contact points is of strategic importance in order to immerse ourselves in situations of real use and understand where value can really be created for the end user and therefore for the product.
We will then move on to the phase of creating the wireframes, with the sharing of an interactive prototype that will define the functionality and structure of each single page and interaction of the product.
Once the wireframes have been consolidated, we will move on to the design phase of the graphic interface, with attention paid to the smallest details in so as to ensure a positive and truly satisfying user experience.
At this point, our developers come into play for the implementation part. We use the most current technologies such as React, Flutter, Gatsby JS, Symfony, Node.JS and others to create products with high standards of quality and stability, working and pixel perfect.
