An unusual project for the studio, the GelPro redesign involved only strategy and UX design to serve as a guide for the company's in-house web team. In that scope, the primary deliverables were wireframes.
Primary design concerns were the clarification and navigation of many floor mat models along with the balance of technical facts and emotional warmth.
