Hive Network AI
Project Overview
Hive Network is a pioneering decentralized platform for secure AI agents, designed to transform how Web3/Web2 builders engage with AI. Their vision is to streamline the creation of trustless and verifiable AI agents, enhancing user experience and driving mass adoption of crypto technologies through transparency, security, and privacy.
In preparation for their alpha launch at ETHDenver, Hive sought our expertise to deliver two key elements within a one-week timeframe: a logo and brand that embodies their product and vision, and an intuitive and visually striking proof-of-concept UI.
Our design solutions for Hive Network included a bold brand identity and a user-centric proof of concept UI that transformed complex tech into intuitive designs, setting Hive up for a successful alpha release and future growth.
Process & Methodology
Our design process centered around receiving feedback and iterating on it early and frequently. We held collaborative workshops and design reviews to embrace an iterative approach, allowing for continuous improvement. Communication mostly took place on Discord, with occasional checkings, enruging ensured that the design evolved in line with Hive's needs and feedback.
Brand Identity
Through collaborative sessions with Hive’s founder, we explored design concepts to capture Hive’s vision. We focused on elements that reflect the interconnected nature of AI agents, using hexagonal shapes reminiscent of honeycomb cells to suggest networked nodes, and incorporating subtle references to an abstract bee motif. We used a bold color palette with yellow, orange, silver, and black, and integrated on-trend elements like glassmorphism, gradients, and 3D effects. This approach ensured the brand identity was both modern and familiar to users in the crypto ecosystem.
UI Design
With the logo and brand colors in place, we developed a proof-of-concept UI for Hive’s platform. Using wireframes from the technical founder, we refined them into high-fidelity designs emphasizing simplicity, functionality, and visual appeal. Key screens include the Agents Hub dashboard, agent messaging, Create New Agents, and a unique "swarming" feature for complex workflows. Additionally, the interface incorporates dark mode to deliver a sleek and modern aesthetic.
