At Schema, we believe the future of search isn’t about smarter queries—it’s about smarter experiences.

In our latest article, we explore how vector search—a system that understands meaning, not just words, opens new opportunities for designing intelligent interfaces.

For decades, most search systems have forced people to think like machines. Users guess at keywords, refine their queries, and scroll through pages of results hoping something relevant appears.

We’re excited to introduce Labs — a new space for experimental ideas, prototypes, and explorations at the intersection of UX and emerging technologies. From generative interfaces to interactive tools and articles, Labs is where we push boundaries, test new concepts, and imagine what’s next.

At Schema, we believe design can do more than communicate—it can connect, unify, and empower.

We partnered with the Global Evaluation Initiative (GEI), part of the World Bank Group, to craft a brand identity system that reflects the power of collaboration. Designed to grow with GEI’s evolving global network, this modular system brings visual clarity while honoring the individuality of each partner.

It’s not just a brand, it’s a shared language for collective impact.

We joined the Morningstar Sustainable Investing Summit in Amsterdam, tackling the challenge of turning ESG data into an interactive experience.

Our team created immersive visualizations for Morningstar using data from over 9,500 companies. Attendees could explore global sustainability trends on a massive video wall or dive into climate ratings at interactive stations.

The result was a standout presence that sparked meaningful engagement and elevated Morningstar’s product story.
