From this ambition came the idea make connections in the city: between people, between people and the city, between people and opportunity : “Connect to Prosper".
To create an integrated passenger experience and translate Kochi Metro’s vision ‘Connect to Prosper’, Tata Elxsi researched to identify the traveler personas, classifying the metro users and defining their needs and aspirations.
The studies led to arising themes where Tata Elxsi worked on translating the themes into enhanced traveler experiences and a series of valuable and differentiating signature services for the Kochi metro brand.
This included developing a brand identity, Tata Elxsi worked in association with Brash Brands to design this refreshed Brand Identity. The touch point ideas across each opportunity of traveler journey. A range of digital features like Kochi Metro mobile application, ticket vending machine user interface, smart card sub-branding and digital signage were designed to encourage passengers to use the Metro for travel.
Intuitive built space experiences, attractive station interiors, apt information design, station furniture, train livery and brand identity and collaterals were also developed to reflect the spirit of Kochi.
Integrating digital experiences in conjunction with the overall customer experience ecosystem enabling them to access services / features across the Metro service in a simple and intuitive manner, we designed a mobile app, to address all the key customer touchpoints across the entire Metro service to ensure a seamless user experience
