‘bxp’ is a resource recording outstanding brand experiences and documenting exceptional touchpoints. ‘bxp’ values situations where brands put the customer and user into the focal point and build meaningful and enduring interrelationships. The platform intends to find interaction patterns, share best cases and subsequently inspire entrepreneurs, product managers, brand consultants and service designers to create better experiences in the future.
‘Cockpit’ is an application originally developed for a Stuttgart-based housing association. Their facility managers take care of 18,000+ flats and tenements – from now on by using iPads. Information on tenants, scheduled tasks as well as day-to-day issues can be accessed and managed through a dedicated app, created to make detailed data available while on the way. Created with Thomas Manss & Company, the task included the user experience, interaction and interface design to a redesigned SAP database.

How might we enable office workers to stay synchronised with their personal news stream without task interruptions and lowering productivity? ‘Newsfloat’ is an ambient news app concept addressing this demand.
