Arelion

A complete brand transformation for a global B2B tech company – applied across multiple digital surfaces. I worked on redesigning Arelion’s website, internal platforms, and customer-facing tools. I also designed a custom-built, interactive map-based tool that visualized their vast global network in a way that empowered both customers and internal sales teams.

  • Client: Arelion (formerly Telia Carrier)
  • Year: 2021–2022
  • Role: Digital Designer (UX/UI)
  • Platform: Website, intranet, customer portals, data visualization tool

1.

The Challenge

Arelion had just launched a bold and detailed new identity. Every detail – from typography to micro-interactions – had to reflect this brand evolution. Technically, the challenge was to bring the identity to life across systems with limited customization. On top of this, I helped design a complex network visualization tool – aimed at simplifying massive datasets into an intuitive experience.

2.

My Role

I led UX and UI design across several tracks of work. This included adapting the brand identity to the existing website and internal platforms, as well as designing a completely new data visualization tool from the ground up. I collaborated closely with:

  • Arelion’s internal stakeholders
  • The creative director from their branding agency (Bold)
  • International tech teams responsible for development and platform integration

3.

The Process

Brand Implementation:

  • Applied Arelion’s new visual identity across website, intranet, and customer portals
  • Worked through detailed edge cases to ensure design consistency
  • Aligned continuously with branding agency and internal dev teams

Data Visualization Tool

  • Designed a map-based interface to display Arelion’s global infrastructure: cables, data centers, services
  • Balanced two user types: internal sales teams and potential customers
  • Structured massive amounts of technical data into a clean, explorable UI
  • Prioritized clarity, accessibility, and brand feel

4.

Key Challenges & Solutions

  • Tech constraints vs. brand ambition: Found creative ways to implement visual identity within rigid platforms
  • Detail-driven design: Ensured every UI component aligned with brand intent
  • Information overload: Transformed complex network data into a calm, understandable user experience
  • Multiple stakeholders: Navigated input from branding, sales, tech, and business with frequent reviews and alignment

5.

Outcome

The result was a website that embodied the Arelion brand in every pixel – clear, bold, and modern. The map-based tool became a powerful asset for both sales and marketing, helping users explore and understand Arelion’s global offering in a more tangible way. The project was a strong example of cross-functional design collaboration at a high technical and visual level.

6.

What I Learned

This project reinforced the value of precision and alignment – especially when working across brand, tech, and business. I learned how to implement design at scale, and how to structure complex information for very different user needs. Most of all, I gained experience in turning abstract, technical systems into something intuitive and brand-forward.
