A complete redesign of the platform 10,000+ nutrition professionals use every day.

A rework of software used daily by nutritionists and their front-desk staff. Over 100 screens, dozens of flows, and a design system built from scratch.

The starting point

Built without design in the first place

The original platform had been developed directly by an internal team, with no design phase and no system behind it. It worked, and people had learned their way around it. That’s a different constraint from inheriting someone else’s design work: there was no intent to respect, only habits.

Decision

What changes, and what stays where it is

Ten thousand professionals open this every working day, so the redesign had a rule: improve the tool, don’t make them learn it again.

The structure stays. Same three columns, same order, same section names: patient details and activity on the left, current status in the middle, visits and notes on the right. Someone who used the old platform on Friday finds everything in the same place on Monday.

What changes is the weight given to each thing inside that structure. Navigation moved from seven full-size tiles at the top of the screen to a single row of tabs, giving back a quarter of the viewport. Current weight became the largest number on the page with its delta beside it, and the weight trend, previously a heading with nothing under it, became an actual chart.

Design system

A design system where there wasn’t one

Built specifically for this platform: every component defined and documented, ready for the internal development team to implement without coming back with questions. It’s the first time the product has had one, and it’s what makes 100+ screens consistent rather than 100+ separate decisions.

Let’s create

great things.

How do you work?

We keep things transparent and collaborative. We share updates consistently throughout the process, so nothing comes as a surprise. Weekly 1-to-1 meetings keep the work aligned and give space to review what's been done and plan what's next.

Why should I choose Heterochromia?

We work fast and we have an opinion. We don't just ask "what do you want?" and execute. We guide you through the process, challenge your assumptions when needed, and help you get to something better than what you imagined. Damn, we love what we do.

Do you do outsourcing?

Over the years, we have met a lot of talented people. Some of them work with us regularly on projects that require specific expertise.

What timezone are you in?

We are based in Milan, Italy (CET/CEST), but we work with clients in the USA and Japan with full flexibility.
