The place to be brave
We’ve created New Zealand’s first world-class UX research and usability testing lab to bring you closer to your customers. It’s a ‘safe-space’ for brave design teams to de-risk decisions and other people in your organisation to experience the power of human-centred design.
Make better products with greater confidence
Get aligned
Watching someone struggle to use your product is both humbling and illuminating. Doing it with other people in your organisation breaks down silos and gets you on the same page. It’s this higher level of alignment that gives you a better chance of creating a great user experience.
Reduce risk
What does it cost to design, build and support a product that has poor UX? We think it’s better (and smarter) not to find out. Reduce the risk of creating something that’s costly to support and negatively impacts NPS, by involving customers early and often in the process.
Remove friction
Friction kills customer satisfaction and this comes at a cost, whether it’s lost revenue, bad reviews or overworked support. Yes, it can be uncomfortable watching your customers become confused and frustrated with your product, but what you learn more than pays for itself.
Find insights
Analytics are great for spotting problems and trends. Market research is great for finding opportunities and canvassing opinions. But those alone won’t give you any depth of insight into why people do what they do, or believe what they believe. UX research will.
Increase momentum
Don’t waste time wrangling space, fiddling with technology, or finding the right people for your study. We’ve got everything already setup and ready to go, including loads of sticky notes, sharpies, and hand sanitiser. A world-class environment for shaping future experiences.
Measure impact
We get it - some people have trouble believing in human-centred design. All they see are the sticky notes, when what they want are the numbers. We help you to quantify the performance of your user experience, giving you a reliable and evidence-based way to build support.
With a state of the art facility, The Space InBetween puts research and validation at the centre of their approach, enabling teams to make, test and learn with their users, at pace and with confidence.
