EKONOM system, a powerful accounting software for entrepreneurs and companies. The program already has a long-standing tradition, which unfortunately also carries an unsolicited relic – an outdated GUI from times long past. Solving this problem was the task of this semester.
After the past few months dedicated to working on this task, the result is as follows underneath. I prioritized the functionality of the design system itself, finding a compromise between uniformity and recognizability of the buttons. Each color has its meaning and variants for hover and active state. I was also interested in how the window workflow could work.
When creating the designs, I used available materials from leading brands on the market. Material Symbols served as icons. The font used, Lexend, is designed to be easy to read even by people with visual impairments. The color definition is based on the sophisticated Orbit system from the Czech company Kiwi.com.
