Context
COOLCITY is a climate adaptation ecosystem for European municipalities, combining a public website, visual identity and three connected digital tools: CC Index, CC View and CC Design.
The platform helps cities understand environmental conditions, compare adaptation potential and move from climate data towards planning decisions.
Challenge
The main challenge was to create one coherent product family from several very different layers: public communication, complex climate data, geospatial analysis and planning support.
The system needed to work for multiple audiences — from municipal decision-makers to expert users — while keeping highly technical information understandable and actionable.
My role + impact
I worked across the full ecosystem:
- brand strategy and full brandbook
- public website
- product structure
- UX/UI for CC Index, CC View and CC Design
My contribution focused on translating complex environmental content into clear interfaces, creating consistency across tools and shaping a design language that could support both communication and data-heavy product experiences.
Outcome
The result is a connected climate adaptation ecosystem: a public-facing website supported by a coherent product suite for benchmarking, spatial diagnosis and planning.
The work helped structure COOLCITY as a scalable system rather than a set of separate tools, making complex climate data easier to understand, navigate and use in municipal contexts.
