The 3E System is a modular, climate-resilient home-building platform.

2022

Role: UX Designer
Timeline: 6 weeks (Discovery → Delivery)
Team: Product Manager, Front-end Developer, Technical Architect
Tools Used: Figma, Maze, Hotjar, Google Analytics
Deliverables: High-fidelity homepage prototype, Interactive component library (cards, modals, maps), User flows & click-through demos
Impact: (first 30 days post-launch - 15 Jul → 14 Aug 2022), +24 % demo-video plays, +18 % “Leave your number” form submissions, –15 % bounce rate (68 % → 58 %)

The Challenge - Turn a complex B2B construction technology into an inviting, consumer-friendly site that drives demo requests.

3E System’s core tech lets you build without mortar or insulation - 350+ climate zones, 24/7 all-weather construction. But prospects found the old site too dry, too “techy,” and buried the key value props behind jargony paragraphs.

Old site pain points:

Engineering jargon buried the benefits
• Prospects asked, “What exactly is 3E?”
• Homepage bounce rate: 68 %

Goals

Lift “Leave your number” submissions by ≥ 15 %
Increase demo-video plays by ≥ 20 %

Research & Insights

Qualitative Interviews

5 architects, 3 small builders: struggled to understand “what exactly is 3E?”
Pain point: “I want to see real houses built with this before I invest.”

Quantitative Web Audit

Bounce rate on homepage: 68%
Only 12% of visits clicked “Contact” or “Leave your number.”

Key Takeaways

Simplify the story: prospects need a clear “Step 1… Step 2…” roadmap.
Show social proof: real projects, client quotes, hard numbers.
Create visual hierarchy: call outs for Ecology, Efficiency, Economy.

New Information Architecture Structure

  1. Hero & Step-by-Step Entry (What do you need? → Build or Buy)

  2. How it works (You choose your dream home)

  3. Lead Magnet (Leave your number → we’ll call you)

  4. System 3E Pillars (Ecology, Energy Efficiency, Economy)

  5. Our Realizations (Project gallery + quick stats)

  6. Client Testimonials

  7. Offer & Metrics (Why now? 16 years experience, 20 countries, etc.)

  8. Contact & Location

  9. Newsletter Signup

Wireframes → Hi-Fi

Wireframe round: sketched this stepped layout to test hierarchy
Hi-Fi: introduced bold coral panels, minimalist icons, and high-contrast text

Visual Design & Interaction

Color palette: charcoal, white, coral (#E63946) for CTAs

Typography:

Headlines: Montserrat Bold, uppercase for impact
Body: Inter Regular for readability

Components:

3E Pillar cards with isometric shadows
Project thumbnails with hover zoom and quick-info overlays

Accessibility & Performance

WCAG 2.1 AA compliant:
