User Interface & UX Design
From the user’s perspective, the user interface is a central part of a product. For many, it is the most important part. The user experience is also becoming increasingly important to both lay users and healthcare professionals. Users are accustomed to strong user interface concepts and UX.
These expectations also apply to medical, IVD and healthcare products. But how do you design an outstanding user interface with a breakthrough user experience? We can help you. Find out how on this page.

A typical project workflow in text and images
01
Kick-off
In a joint kick-off, we get to know your product and your goals. Here we work out what we want to achieve and the plan for implementing the goals, including a schedule. Guidelines, style guides, frameworks and possible restrictions in the design are also discussed in this step.
02
User Interface Design concept
We develop the design concept on which the user interface is to be based and discuss it in joint workshops.
In order to design exactly according to your wishes, you will receive the concept from us in wireframes. Based on these, you can give us your input, which will then be incorporated into the concept.
03
Visual Design Sprints
Parallel to the user interface concept, we develop the visual design of your user interface. Of course, all your guidelines and style guides are taken into account here. Specific requirements of the respective industry are also taken in consideration here.
04
Clickdummies for formative evaluations
We now test your user interface using clickdummies with real users to ensure that we detect any use errors as early as possible. This allows us to react accordingly in the design process. The user feedback also helps to improve the user interface concept and evaluate the visual design.
05
Documentation and Styleguide
We document all elements and patterns designed by us and compile them for you in an interactive style guide. In addition, you will receive a library of icons and elements designed by us, which you can use to speed up the development process.
06
Presentation of the results
In a final presentation, we present the results of the joint work to you once again in a collected form and discuss the next steps for your user interface design. This also includes talking about the product roadmap and planning future enhancements together.
Do you have questions about project workflow? We would be happy to discuss your specific needs.

Frequently Asked Questions about User Interface & UX Design
Why should I design with you?
We design medical devices on a daily basis and have also worked with our clients to get various medical devices cleared. Therefore, we have a proven track record in the field of medical devices.
In addition, we only employ excellent designers in our team. Not only do we say this, but so do the juries of various design awards. Every single one of our designers has already won a Red Dot Design Award or a German Design Award. Many of them even several times.
Still not convinced? Here are 10 reasons why you should design with us.
Is User Interface and UX Design really important for medical, IVD or healthcare products?
Yes, user interface and UX design is critical for medical, IVD and healthcare products. Three selected reasons:
- Safety for users and others: An intuitive and well-designed user interface reduces the likelihood of errors that could have serious consequences. Clear and understandable instructions and easy navigation can help minimize errors and increase safety.
- Regulatory requirements: Medical and IVD products are subject to stringent regulatory requirements. Good user interface and UX design helps meet these requirements by ensuring that products are easy and safe to use. This is often a critical factor in gaining regulatory approval.
- Competitive advantage: In an increasingly competitive market, excellent user interface and UX design can be a significant advantage. Products that are easier and more enjoyable to use are preferred and have a better chance of succeeding in the marketplace.
What billing options are available?
We offer different billing options depending on the client’s needs and the type of project:
- Fixed price: When we can define exactly what we are going to do and what the result should be, we offer a fixed price project.
- Hours / Hourly Rate: It is not entirely clear what needs to be done (e.g. because the ideal process only emerges during the course of the project through user research)? In this case, billing by the hour is appropriate.
- Flat rate: Need continuous support with maximum flexibility? Then our Medical Design Flat Rate is for you.
- Mix: A combination of all the other billing models.
How soon can you start after receiving the order?
This depends on the project and is not easy to answer in general terms. Typically, we can start within 1-2 weeks. However, if you wish, we can provide you with a fixed schedule as early as the proposal phase so that you know exactly when to expect what results.
Is design all digital for you, or can you also design physical products?
We design both digital and physical interfaces. We can also design the actual product, including the case.
Do you do more than "just" design?
Yes, we are a full-service usability engineering provider for manufacturers of medical devices and IVDs. Our services range from initial product strategy, user interface design, product design and front-end development to international usability evaluations and post-market surveillance.
We want to meet you and your product!
