A familiar workspace. A clearer workday.

01 / Executive summary

One connected workplace, designed around the real workday.

Life at Zenesys is positioned in the Figma design as a single employee and HR workspace rather than a collection of disconnected HR modules.

The landing experience makes the product promise immediate: “Your workplace, simplified.” From the first screen, users can understand the two access paths—Employee Login and Admin Login—and preview the information that matters during a normal workday.

Simplify

Reduce the number of places users need to look.

Connect

Bring people, workday information and HR tasks into one system.

Role-aware

Separate employee self-service from HR/Admin operations.

Responsive

Carry the same product language from desktop to mobile.

02 / Product story

One connected workplace.

The Figma landing page introduces the product through a compact navigation model: Overview · Employees · HR teams · AI assistance.

People

Employee information, profiles and organizational context stay accessible from the same product.

Attendance

Check-in, shift information, workday status and attendance history are surfaced clearly.

Payroll

Leave balances, payslips and pay information are presented as everyday self-service tasks.

Documents

Employee documents and secure document workflows are part of the same experience.

Lifecycle

Onboarding, offboarding and exit formalities extend the product across the employee lifecycle.

HR operations

HR teams get denser management views for people, attendance, leave, payroll and documents.

03 / The challenge

Make enterprise HR feel simple without hiding the complexity.

The product has two very different usage patterns. Employees need fast answers and self-service. HR teams need visibility, control and high-volume operational tools.

EMPLOYEE

Login → Dashboard → Attendance → Leave → Pay → Documents → Profile → Exit

HR / ADMIN

Login → Overview → Employees → Attendance → Leave → Policies → Payroll → Documents → Onboarding / Offboarding

The design therefore has to balance a light, approachable product story with information-dense enterprise screens underneath it.

04 / The problem

Different jobs. Different information density. One product.

Employee self-service

The Figma screens focus on immediate answers: today’s attendance, leave balances, latest payslip, profile information, documents and exit progress.

Speed + clarity + confidence

HR & Admin management

Management screens introduce summary metrics, tables, filters, status badges, approval actions, payroll controls and secure document handling.

Visibility + control + efficiency

05 / The solution

Two role-based experiences, one visual language.

01

Employee experience

Dashboard, profile, attendance, leave, pay, documents and exit are organized around frequent self-service tasks.

02

HR experience

Overview, employee management, attendance, leave approvals, holidays & policies, payroll, onboarding/offboarding and documents support operational work.

03

AI assistance

The landing page explicitly reserves a product story for AI assistance, positioning it as part of the workplace experience rather than a separate product.

06 / My role

From UX architecture to a coherent enterprise interface.

Product UX

Role-based journeys, navigation, information architecture and lifecycle workflows.

UX design

User flows, hierarchy, task structure, responsive behavior and progressive disclosure.

UI design

Landing page, dashboards, forms, tables, cards, status badges and responsive states.

Design system

Inter typography, red brand accent, neutral surfaces, action states, borders and reusable components.

Responsive design

Desktop and mobile screen families were designed as intentional layouts, not simple scaled-down screens.

07 / Understanding the user

The design starts with two jobs to be done.

PERSONA 01

Employee

Job: Get an HR task done without depending on HR.

  • Check in and understand today's workday
  • See leave balances and request status
  • View and download payslips
  • Manage personal information
  • Find documents quickly
  • Track exit formalities when required
PERSONA 02

HR / Admin

Job: Manage people and HR operations with confidence.

  • Monitor employee and attendance data
  • Approve leave and manage policies
  • Process payroll
  • Manage onboarding and offboarding
  • Maintain employee documents
  • Work with dense datasets without losing context

08 / Information architecture

Navigation follows role and responsibility.

EMPLOYEE

Self-service workspace

Dashboard · Profile · Attendance · Leave · Pay · Documents · Exit

Frequent actions first. Detail appears when needed.
HR / ADMIN

Operations workspace

Overview · Employees · Attendance · Leave approvals · Holidays & policies · Payroll · Onboarding / Offboarding · Documents

Summary first, then dense operational views.

09 / Screens

The Figma design contains 17 product areas, each with dedicated desktop and mobile frames. Instead of presenting them as a flat list, this section explains what each screen is responsible for and shows the corresponding Figma frame directly.

Typography

Inter

Hero: 48px on mobile · Body: 16px · Labels: 11px · UI actions: 12–14px.

Buttons

Primary actions use the Zenesys red accent with compact 48px interaction height and 6px corners. Secondary actions use a white surface with a neutral border.

Cards

Product cards use restrained borders, 10–16px radii and light shadows. Information is grouped rather than over-decorated.

Data & status

Tables, summary metrics, badges, approval states and secure document workflows keep dense enterprise data scannable.

11 / Responsive design

Mobile is a designed experience, not a breakpoint.

Desktop

Large content workspace, side navigation, summary metrics, tables and multi-column management views.

Mobile

Compact header, stacked content, card-based records and bottom navigation for thumb-friendly access.

The Figma file contains paired desktop and mobile frames for the same product areas, making responsive behavior part of the system itself.

12 / Design philosophy

Make the system feel lighter than the work it manages.

Visible first

Surface the information users need before asking them to search for it.

Progressive

Keep the primary task clear and reveal deeper detail when required.

Trustworthy

Use clear statuses, security cues and predictable actions for sensitive HR data.

Responsive

Preserve task clarity across desktop and mobile rather than simply shrinking the UI.

AI-ready

AI assistance is introduced as a natural layer inside the employee workplace experience.

Final case study statement

Your workplace, simplified.

Life at Zenesys turns HR from a set of administrative destinations into one connected workplace experience. The design pairs approachable product storytelling with role-specific operational depth, supported by a consistent visual system and dedicated responsive screen families.
