Blup X Studio Space
Reimagining no-code app building for
clarity, speed, and scale.
StudioSpace partnered with Blup to transform its developer-built MVP into a clearer, more approachable product experience. Through research, UX strategy, interface design, and a scalable design system, we created a stronger foundation for the platform’s future.
Project
Overview
Transforming an early MVP
into a product built for growth.
Blup enables people to design and build applications without writing code. Its original product was created as a functional MVP by the development team. While the core technology was powerful, the experience lacked the clarity, consistency, and usability expected from a modern creative platform.
StudioSpace was brought in to establish a user-centred design process and redesign the product experience from the ground up.
The
challenge
Research revealed several
barriers affecting the product experience:
Research revealed several barriers affecting the product experience:
Editing tools were difficult to discover.
Selected and unselected states lacked contrast.
Visual logic features were difficult to understand.
Users had no clear dashboard for managing projects.
Importing designs from Figma required too many steps.
Navigation, scrolling, and zooming felt restrictive.
The interface lacked a consistent visual hierarchy.
The StudioSpace
Solution
A complete product experience
from structure to interface.
StudioSpace redesigned Blup as a more intuitive, consistent, and scalable app-building environment. We clarified the product architecture, reorganised its main workflows, developed a new interface system, and created reusable components for future development.
