Our design principles

Purposeful driven: Every design element, from the largest to the smallest, must have a purpose, and contribute to the purpose of a larger element it is part of, ultimately leading the system to achieve Ascendon's purpose. If you can’t explain what an element is for, most likely it shouldn’t be there.

Agnostic design: The design should be technology and style agnostic. Each component can be independently altered, substituted or upgraded to create new experiences. By managing the perceptual patterns separately from the functional ones, we can quickly customize styles using themes and merge them seamlessly with existing experiences.

Don’t reinvent the wheel: Don’t reinvent the wheel, just redesign it. Our experiences are original but familiar and predictable, we earn our clients' credibility by making their users feel empowered. We strive for intuitive and consistent experiences and differentiate only in places where it really matters.

Connect with the customer: Make it feel personal. Ease of use isn’t the only measure of a positive user experience; pleasurably is just as important. Something can be dead simple, but if it’s outrageously boring or cold it can feel harder to get through. Designs should have flourishes of warmth, kindness, whimsy, richness, seduction, wit — anything that incites passion and makes the person feel engaged and energized.
