The challenge is to design a scalable banking dashboard for Emirates NBD that serves both SMEs and corporate clients, ensuring clarity, intuitive navigation, and brand consistency across desktop and mobile (iOS)—while allowing a single-toggle switch between Emirates NBD and Emirates Islamic branding.
GOAL
Build a user-centric dashboard that’s clear, efficient, and adaptable across desktop and iOS. It should enable easy toggling between Emirates NBD and Emirates Islamic, while serving SMEs with simplified workflows and corporates with high-volume transaction support.

Final – Optimized Experience
Refined hierarchy, task-first design, better status indicators, and visual polish for a professional, user-friendly dashboard.
The design adapts seamlessly to both Emirates NBD and Emirates Islamic, ensuring consistency, scalability, and brand integrity.
