Manifesto

What we do

The journey

01 / 06
01

Research

We go to the field and talk to real people. Interviews, observation and audits show us what matters before anything gets designed.

InterviewsField visitsUX audits
02

Strategy

We turn insight into a sharp brief: who it's for, what it must do, and how we'll know it worked.

PositioningPersonasJourneys
03

Brand identity

Names, marks and visual systems that look the same and mean the same in every place people meet them.

UX & UI

Apps, dashboards and SaaS products people understand the first time. We design the flow first, then the screens.

UX Lab

Don't trust us. Test us.

Three laws of UX behind every Arighna project. Each one is a small experiment you can run right here.

Paul Fitts · 1954

Bigger and closer is faster.

The time it takes to reach a target depends on how far away it is and how big it is.

T = a + b · log₂(D / W + 1)

Press Start, then hit the blue target as fast as you can. Change its size and compare your times.

That's why your primary button should be big and close to where the thumb already is.

Target size 40px

Hick & Hyman · 1952

More choices, slower decisions.

Decision time grows with the number of options. Every extra menu item makes people think a little longer.

RT = a + b · log₂(n + 1)

Press Go, then find and click the outlined option. Add more options and watch your time go up.

That's why good interfaces show fewer options at a time.

Memory loves chunks.

Short-term memory holds only a handful of items. Grouping information into chunks makes it far easier to remember.

9848022338 → 984 802 2338

Look at the number for 3 seconds, then type it from memory. Try it with chunking on and with it off.

That's why we group form fields, card numbers and long content into chunks.
