Dewesoft·2026·Personal Design Challenge

Reimagining DewesoftX's first impression

Dewesoft builds some of the most precise data acquisition hardware in the world — trusted by NASA, Tesla, and BMW. As a designer drawn to complex technical products, I set myself a personal challenge: explore how the software's onboarding experience could better reflect the premium craftsmanship of the hardware. This design exploration reimagines the DewesoftX splash screen and home screen.

The opportunity

Hardware excellence deserves a matching software experience

Dewesoft is a €100M+ employee-owned company with 400+ employees, serving the world's top engineering teams across automotive, aerospace, and energy. Their hardware — SIRIUS, KRYPTON, IOLITE — sets the industry standard for precision and build quality.

DewesoftX, their flagship software, is incredibly powerful with 35+ display widgets and advanced analysis capabilities. I saw an opportunity to bring the same level of craft to the software's first touchpoint: the loading screen and home screen that greet users every session.
