The Future of Prosperity

Strategy

During the discovery process, we’ve realized that we need to steer clear of things considered too technical or “nerdy” since, geographically, the target audience did not relate to these aspects much–in some cases even being apprehensive.

This paved the way for an approach that focused on highlighting values, whether they’re personal or collective, to highlight how blockchain can bring transparency to and cut out middlemen in everyday interactions.

Since the focus here was mostly on South America and Africa, the approach required a different kind of persuasion that involved focusing on how blockchain’s adoption can make improvements in social aspects, almost completely ignoring crypto talk. Family values, communication, and trust were among our central focus points.

Design Solution

The universal word “Pixels”. Looking very digital and technological, just about everyone is familiar with the word pixel and what it stands for. If you don’t, Wikipedia has a great article about it. We’ll wait.

Now that we’re on the same page, the great thing about pixels is that they create something whole once you zoom out enough, and that’s a great analogy for the brand’s message – together for better, prosperity through collaboration.

Using pixels, we’ve drawn a whole picture (and unified, too) – starting with the logo and concluding with patterns and abstract art. This approach allowed us to create a website that feels light, requires few resources to run and is pleasant to look at. It’s not very sci-fi either to ensure it’s audience-appropriate.

Vision

We’ve made two versions of the logo: one full, one an icon. Both use pixels as the central idea. To add to the “Wow!”ness of it, we’ve animated the pixelated background to blend with Etherfuse’s logo.

We’ve paid extra attention to picking fonts and colors, opting to use the least amount of different text formats; white, black, and lemon-yellow as an accent. This was done purposefully to make sure that attention is not drawn away from the main stage–NFTs. The chosen font was modern grotesque with nuanced symbols, adding the “cherry on top” to the brand’s character.

Twist

You must have noticed how many times we’ve said pixels throughout this case study. Well, here comes another one: working on a “per pixel” basis allowed us to focus on granular detail. Not a single pixel is out of place because we’ve crafted the design pixel by pixel.

Pixels pixels pixels… We think we’re done 🙂

Website design

After nailing down our branding, we were stoked to tackle the next milestone: creating a website that truly embodies the startup’s essence and appeals to potential investors. While we brought our established style to the table and applied it to the site, we understood that this was only the foundation. To make our website truly stand out, we knew that we had to go above and beyond.
That’s why we augmented our website with extra creativity, adding impressive animations and micro-interactions to enhance the user experience. These elements are not just visually stunning, but they also serve to make our website more engaging and interactive. By incorporating these features, we are confident that the website will leave a lasting impression and set the company apart from competitors.
