Design Challenge

Design Challenge
The challenge was to design for two different moments in one B2B platform. On one side, the homepage needs to build trust, explain the value of JDE Professional and help business customers discover coffee solutions. On the other side, the service pages need to be direct, calm and task-focused when users are trying to solve a machine problem. These needs are very different, but they still have to feel like one connected ecosystem. The platform had to communicate clearly to new customers while also supporting existing users after purchase.

I worked on homepage directions that position JDE Professional as a one-stop shop for B2B coffee solutions. The homepage includes sections for brand value, industries, machines, product categories, promotional content and service benefits such as fast support and 24/7 availability. Next to the commercial homepage, I designed machine overview and service guide pages. These pages structure technical support information into clearer flows, including machine errors, severity, repair time, required items, warnings and step-by-step instructions. I focused on hierarchy and clarity so users can quickly understand what is wrong and what to do next.

The Result

The Result
The result is a broader platform direction that connects product discovery with service support. The homepage helps businesses understand what JDE offers, while the service pages help users solve practical problems after they are already using a machine. This project shows how I think about B2B digital products as a full journey: first impression, product exploration, decision-making and support.
