Inclusive banking for a diverse society
Inclusive banking for a diverse society
ATMs are used by seniors, foreign visitors, and people with disabilities, yet many existing machines do not accommodate this diverse range of users. Recognizing this issue, we created an inclusive financial utility designed to meet the needs of all people without exception.

Creating a human-centered ATM experience
Creating a human-centered ATM experience
I&CO designed Lawson Bank's next-generation ATM offering, an integrated hardware and software experience providing people with ease of use and peace of mind.
We integrated a large vertical touchscreen for intuitive interaction and replaced traditional color-coded buttons with a universal color scheme to enhance accessibility. The movable screen and ATM enclosure were designed to ensure comfortable operation from wheelchairs. Since privacy is essential for comfortable transactions, the ATM features a built-in physical mirror and a rear-view video feed, reassuring people during transactions.
In addition, I&CO devised a flexible design system that foresees future upgrades and new features to ensure that the ATM remained adaptable over time.
Because ATMs should serve as the "quiet public space" for anyone, we conducted extensive user testing to create a more user-friendly and inclusive experience, ensuring no one is left behind.
