Save money when buying or selling a property

Reltora is a startup company from Palm Beach, Florida aiming to take advantage of the technology to reduce considerably the costs associated with selling or buying a property.

The logo

Since a lot of the business is happening online, the logo was developed to be highly flexible and simple enough to be easily displayed on mobile devices.

The logo Concept

The negative space of the letters "L" and "T" creates a rectangular shape that depicts an entrance that symbolizes the start of a journey. This suggestion recalls the imagination of the audience and let people make up their own story, which increases the logo's memorability.

MLS Listed Properties

The website displays listed properties from the MLS database, enabling users to see all listed properties in their preferred area and view property details.

Icons Set

A variety of unique icons was developed to make information easy to find and well organized.

Divided in two, the home page has a search area to prompt users to search for listed properties and it also has a call-to-action that describes how much money can be saved when dealing with Reltora.

A delicate sip of Andalusia

El Molino’s extra-virgin olive oil from Andalusia, Spain is characterized by its extremely delicate flavours - a reflection of the tremendous passion and effort of the people behind the brand.

The Logo

El Molino's olive oil is unique and different from every other product on the market. The logo was designed to illustrate its delicate and sophisticated taste.

The Packaging

The logo is also attached directly to the glass bottle, allowing the name to carry the product even if the paperboard packaging gets removed.

The packaging was designed to show the oil's delicate colour while protecting it from the harmful suns' ray.

Helping online merchants stop suspicious orders

Ekbit is a fraud management system that enables online merchants to set a number of customized rules in order to determine whether an order should be automatically processed, set on pending list for manual review or automatically rejected.

The concept

The concept was based on the idea that the system acts as a powerful filter that let the good go through, but blocks the unwanted. This idea led itself to the analogy with scavengers: animals that feed on dead animals. This behaviour has a positive impact on the ecosystem - cleaning up the environment and reducing the risks of bacteria and disease contagion. Amongst the scavenger family can be found the condors. They distinguish themselves by their extremely good sense of smell and eyesight, which allows them to spot dead animals’ body from far away.

The Rules Package

The interface was designed to allow the user to set an infinite number of rules to control whether orders can be processed or not. A variety of factors such as the location of the customer and the shipping/billing address dissimilarity can be determined in the rules to target fraudulent intent.

The Dashboard

The dashboard summarizes the latest activities and recent transactions in multiple graphs and charts, which allows users to quickly view and understand the overall condition of the orders.
