PROJECT OVERVIEW

Tehnohata is a home appliance retailer with over 20 years of experience, known for its personalised service and expertise. As the product catalogue grew, the website struggled to support efficient product discovery and communicate the trust and guidance customers expect when making high-consideration purchases.

This project focused on redesigning the shopping experience to improve navigation, strengthen brand perception, and help users make purchase decisions with greater confidence.

Product information is difficult to scan and compare.

The site's visual design undermines trust and brand credibility.

Navigation and filtering create unnecessary friction.

01/

Improve product discovery through clearer navigation and filtering.

02/

Support faster product evaluation with better information hierarchy.

USER FLOW MAPPING

I then mapped out the key journey of purchasing an oven to structure the experience around a realistic, goal-driven scenario. This flow is a simplified version of the original for illustrative purposes.

USER PERSONA

Anna, 35

Anna is a working mother from Kyiv who values practicality and reliability when choosing home appliances. She wants technology to simplify her life, but is cautious about where she buys it from.

I want reliable, long-lasting appliances from reputable brands.

I'm interested in promotions and discounts, as renovation gets pretty expensive.

I need products that fit my chosen interior style.

WIREFRAMING & INTERACTION DESIGN

I designed a high-fidelity interactive prototype to simulate a realistic shopping experience, ready for testing. During this phase, I also reworked the product categorisation to improve usability and product discovery.

USER TESTING & INSIGHTS

I tested the prototype with five users through short interviews and usability tasks. Based on their feedback, I identified areas for improvement and iterated on the design. Below are a few selected insights from the many I analysed.

BEFORE

Product bundles — before user testing Product bundles — after user testing

/01 PRODUCT BUNDLES

INSIGHT

Users preferred tangible discounts over complimentary products.

SOLUTION

Added a "buy together & save" feature for users to purchase related items at a combined savings.

BEFORE

Product specs — before user testing Product specs — after user testing

/02 PRODUCT SPECS

INSIGHT

Users found it inconvenient to open multiple accordions.

SOLUTION

Displayed key specs in a compact card with an option to expand for full details.

BEFORE

Top products — before user testing Top products — after user testing

/03 TOP PRODUCTS

INSIGHT

Users struggled to find top-rated products hidden below filters.

SOLUTION

Added a larger 'Top Rated Products' section to help users find trusted items quickly.

SOLUTIONS: PRODUCT PAGE

Product page has a more modern layout with key CTA fixed on the screen. It is now visually organised and easy to scan. Specs are clear and concise. “Buy together & save” feature increases revenue by offering a bundle.

SOLUTIONS: PRODUCT CATALOGUE

By introducing another level of hierarchy to the catalogue, I significantly reduced the main list of categories, making it easier to narrow down quickly. The horizontal catalogue uses space more efficiently and helps guide the users eye left to right.

FLEXIBLE PAYMENT OPTIONS TO BUILD TRUST & HIGHLIGHT A KEY ADVANTAGE
Flexible payment options: єВідновлення, WhitePay, and Tehnohata instalment plan with step-by-step process

SOLUTIONS: PRODUCT CARD

The new card is cleaner, with lots of room for product image and CTA clearly visible. Colour options, product rating and key specs shown on hover help user compare products at a glance.
