Scientific Credibility

Design language that researchers trust

Modern Aesthetic

Distinctly contemporary visual approach

WebGL Visuals

3D protein structure visualizations

The Brief

Communicate cutting-edge science without alienating non-technical visitors. Helix, an AI-powered protein folding research platform, needed a landing page that would resonate with two very different audiences:
  1. Researchers: Scientists who need to trust the platform’s credibility
  2. Investors: Business stakeholders who need to understand the opportunity
The visual language needed to feel scientifically credible and distinctly modern.

Design Approach

Visual Language

We developed a design system that bridges science and technology:
  • Color Palette: Deep blues and purples evoking molecular visualization software
  • Typography: Clean, technical typefaces that feel at home in academic papers
  • Imagery: Abstract 3D representations of protein structures
  • Motion: Subtle animations that suggest molecular movement

Content Strategy

The page guides visitors through:
  1. The Problem: Why protein folding matters for drug discovery
  2. The Solution: How AI accelerates the research process
  3. The Technology: Technical credibility without overwhelming jargon
  4. The Team: Scientific credentials that build trust
