kintana / mercury

 

system

a branded interface

Kintana (since acquired by Mercury) provides a suite of HTML-based software, used for IT Governance. My colleague and I designed the user interface for the 4.0 release, from initial branding concept to interface specs and instructions. We also designed our own processes and internal web-based reference materials.

We also created a different style theme for internal use.

Details

a bold new interface

When Kintana was acquired by Mercury, the application interface needed to reflect the new Mercury brand (which was introduced just a short time after the acquisition.) Because we had designed the interface using Cascading Style Sheets, it was feasible to give the product a face-lift in a matter of months.

The new look is above all clean, with crimson accents that are bold but not too strong. Plenty of white shows the data off to best effect, and a range of subtle grays shape the application framework.
