Mitrex
Mitrex is changing the face of architecture in more ways than one. Their solar facades sustainably and aesthetically revolutionize building design by integrating solar technology into building facades. We extended this unique blend of form and function to their website and rebranding.
A DIGITAL PRESENCE THAT INTRODUCES, INFORMS & CAPTURES LEADS
The challenge
Mitrex aimed to achieve a brand identity that resonates with early adopters and scales to a broader audience. The challenge was to create a full rebrand and website design that highlights Mitrex's innovative solutions, demonstrating their exceptional returns for architects, engineers, building owners, developers, and contractors. Our goal was to present their products in action in a simple, visually appealing manner.
Our approach
Inspired by architecture
We conducted comprehensive research to understand Mitrex’s market, competitors, and target audience. Our research highlighted the need to showcase solutions that not only met their environmental goals but also enhanced the visual appeal of their projects. This insight guided our strategy to emphasize both aspects equally.
By gaining a thorough understanding of the technical and practical applications of Mitrex's products, we were able to craft a website and brand identity with clear and compelling examples of their applications in the real world.
Mithra, the god of the sun
Among our rebranding tasks, we created Mitrex’s logo. The new logo concept is rooted in Mitrex's core idea of converting sunlight into electricity. The logo features parallel stripes forming a lightning bolt silhouette, symbolizing a strong foundation and the brand's innovative, confident, and reliable qualities. This design upholds brand equity and effectively communicates Mitrex's vision.
Not just a pretty site
We developed wireframes to structure the website's extensive functionality, providing clarity and direction for the client. These wireframes were essential in transforming Mitrex's vision into a practical and usable digital platform. The site's functionality establishes credibility for Mitrex's products and the company itself.
The spark of the site
The simulator is a standout, customizable feature that lets users plan their energy output and visualize the facades on buildings. This interactive element puts users in control, enabling them to understand the impact, application, and value of Mitrex's products.
Illustration
Illustrations play a massive role in the website's navigation and flow. Icons based on a pixel grid highlight benefits clearly and concisely, while the line work, reminiscent of architectural drawings, aligns with Mitrex's industry focus. These illustrations aid in making the site intuitive and informative.
