MES
Industry
Picture this. You're a manufacturing pro, juggling a million things, and your MES system feels more like a confusing maze than a helpful tool. Frustrating, right? That’s the “MES-ery” we set out to eliminate with KORUMES.
Streamlined Simplicity on a Tight Timeline.
When you’re tasked with designing a complete brand identity and interface for an MES in record time, you don’t panic, you strategize. So, we did what any sensible team would do.
We turned the AC to “Ice Age,” grabbed our metaphorical mojitos (no worries—we don’t drink on the job!) and leapt into the fray with a grin. Inspired by the koru fern, a symbol of new beginnings, growth and strength, we crafted a streamlined design that puts functionality front and center.

Method
Begin with a bold name and a sleek logo to set the foundation. Gradually mix in UX/UI design focused on streamlined workflows and clear navigation, making sure that every feature feels intuitive from the first click. Blend in prototyping to test and refine ideas, smoothing out any lumps along the way. Top it off with a design system built for consistency and scalability. Serve as a crisp, app-like experience that’s ready to deliver results.
MES Software Built for Action
We skipped the whole "reinvent-the-wheel" drama and went straight to the source: manufacturers. By digging into their real pain points, we uncovered the problem: too much complexity. We stripped away the fluff, streamlined workflows and delivered exactly what users need: clear navigation, intuitive features and a refreshingly simple interface that keeps them focused on results.
Rapid Branding Execution, Action-Oriented UX/UI & Scalable Design Systems.
These summer sprints challenged us to deliver big ideas on a tight timeline, refining our skills in rapid prototyping, simplifying complex workflows, and delivering cohesive, actionable designs.
Turns out, pressure isn’t just great for making diamonds—it’s also perfect for transforming a hot MES into a cool solution.
