Novacene

From complex environmental data to actionable insights

Brand & Visual identity

For Novacene, we created a distinct brand and visual identity that reflects their innovative approach to IoT and property tech and drew inspiration from James Lovelock’s book of the same name (Novacene: The Coming Age of Hyperintelligence), which was the grounded ethos the company was built upon.

We balanced sophistication and accessibility, ensuring that industry experts and everyday users alike could engage with the brand. Modern typography and a bold, professional colour palette were implemented across touch points, creating a cohesive, recognisable presence that embodies Novacene’s innovative vision.

The graph compares CO2 levels in parts per million (ppm) with occupancy count over time, showing data across different zones such as Ground Floor, 1st Floor, and 2nd Floor, with air quality and security filters applied.

Product Strategy & UX/UI

Altiverse developed a comprehensive product strategy for Novacene, centred on user experience and adaptability.

We designed an intuitive UX/UI that allows users to seamlessly interact with complex IoT data, providing insights into energy usage and building performance. Through user research, we mapped out customer journeys to address pain points and created configurable interfaces that adapt to different user needs.

This dynamic approach ensures the platform scales effectively while delivering a user-friendly experience that supports Novacene's mission of reducing energy waste.

A button prompts users to book a free consultation, and the page notes that Novacene is trusted by world-leading brands.
