Speech Lab, SSN
A modern website for SSN's Speech Lab — a research lab that contributed to AI4Bharat's Tamil work, stuck with a 2010s site.
Services
Web design and development, motion graphics and SEO for the lab's new website.
The problem
The site was stuck in a 2010s UI and never updated. For a lab with this much research behind it, none of it showed.
Who it’s for
Other researchers — it had to feel serious and credible, but modern.
What we built
A clean, confident site in the spirit of a San Francisco research lab, so researchers find the work fast.
Built in Next.js and deployed on the lab's own servers.
LGS craft
Research sites are usually boring — we brought in motion graphics and custom illustrations.
Tiny micro-interactions you only find when you spend time on it. That's the point.
Outcomes
- From a never-updated 2010s site to a modern research-lab presence.
- Deployed on the lab's own servers.
