Case study · Built by us
Keikiban (計器盤)
A multilingual directory from Japan that gathers travel companies by category on one board — airlines, hotels, car rentals and more — each a click away from its own website.
Built by us: one board, sixteen localizations, and a language that follows the visitor.
01 The challenge
One board, every dial in view.
Keikiban — Japanese for "instrument panel" — brings companies together by category so they can be seen side by side, each one a click away from its own website. It is not a booking site: nothing is sold on it. Airlines, car rentals, hotels and motels are the first panels, with intercity buses, rails and short-term rentals to follow.
The site had to carry that idea calmly, in the visitor's own language, for audiences from Japan to Brazil to Turkey — and feel as considered as the Japanese philosophies of craft it is built around.
02 What we built
Built for sixteen audiences at once.
