Project Nexus

Project overview

Nexus needed a brand that could carry both a developer audience and an enterprise sales motion without splintering. We rebuilt the visual language around a single editorial wordmark and shipped a marketing site engineered for fast iteration by their in-house team.

Designing the experience

Three audiences, one navigation. We tested four IA models with real engineering leads before settling on a verb-led top nav (Build, Deploy, Compare) that mirrors how teams already describe the product internally.

Information architecture

Headless CMS at the edge, MDX for changelog and docs, and a tokens pipeline that lets product designers ship brand updates without engineering. CLS held under 0.02 across the top fifteen routes.
