Redefining the Art of Technology

At Schindler Technology, we approach new solutions by consulting the Masters. The Masters of Art/Architecture, Music and Science that is! Behind every system, interface and site architecture are the foundational elements of art and architecture design with the influences of music and science weaved in.

How are visual elements from Art/Architecture, Music and Science used in our Solutions?

There are rhythms, patterns and processes that shape our lives. Humans perceive and process information based on our senses and past experiences. Schindler Technology creates superior solutions by incorporating key elements of the IAVP process (see below) to guarantee a sound, meaningful and productive experience for our clients and their users.

Our Unique Information Architecture & Visualization Process (IAVP)

1. Utilize the Iterative Process (a problem solving process commonly used within the field of Architecture and Art). This technique derives a visual form from a host of information sources.
   
2. Adapt proprietary visualization tools:
   

   Visualization Design Elements
   Line, Shape, Value	All influence the final system architecture and functionality
   Color	Directs eye movement and navigation on a webpage, report, dashboard
   Depth - 2 and 3 Dimensional Representations	Plan, elevation and 3-d views are employed as used in architecture representation
   Temporal Representations	Displays timeline/lifecycles in one view
   Symbol Language	Raw data in a spreadsheet is converted into easy to identify symbols
   Spatial Structures	A grid depicting performance (i.e. stock market, sales volume, market testing)
   Mapping physical and data information	Embodies elements of style for interfaces to enhance comprehension and information gathering
   Analogy and Metaphor	Relates data in different forms/for different users

   
    
3. Incorporate into the User Interface
4. Develop navigation scheme: By incorporating art and visual elements into each project, the navigation focus is clearly determined in the early stages of the process. Through internal and beta testing it is refined at this stage.
5. Diagram and incorporate into the User Interface
