During the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies moved their business virtual. Millions of square feet of office space sat empty while employees worked from home offices, kitchen tables - anywhere they could find a quiet space.

Is the mall dead? It’s easier than ever to make this argument, considering the last 18 months of record ecommerce sales and the reluctance to shop in person due to the pandemic.

Information and context are critical when communicating in any environment to any audience. This is especially true in healthcare. Both the evolution of technology and the recent pandemic have dramitically changed patient and visitor expectations around information access in healthcare.

When designing solutions for interactive kiosks, you have a bit more flexibility to customize and personalize the user experience, making the solution more accessible for everyone. With kiosk solutions built using Omnivex software, you can easily add options to move menu buttons to more accessible areas, integrate a high-contrast color option, or allow users to increase font size.
As designers, it’s important to know who we are designing for. Who is our audience? Most importantly, who is our client’s audience?
