My Design Process
Coming Soon!

Sketches

I began the design process with low-fidelity sketches and wireframes to accelerate decision-making through visualization without losing time. My sketches were based on the initial user interviews, the business goal, and the heuristic evaluation. They each pointed to the fact that there were too many distractions in the flow. We came back to the sketches throughout the entire design process to make sure that we don’t lose sight of our primary goals and ideas.

  • What was the main purpose of your sketches? (e.g.: presenting, testing, brainstorming)

  • What information was the basis for your sketches?

  • If you made multiple versions what were their main differences?

  • Which version did you choose and why?

  • Explain the layout and arrangement of the elements!

  • How did your sketches help you move forward?

Coming Soon!

Wireframes

Using Figma, I translated my first sketches into low-fidelity wireframes. Then, I improved them by adding a few relevant stock images and copies provided by the marketing team. At this stage, the wireframes were defined enough for some user testing. Based on 4 tests, I’ve made a few alternations and moved on to creating high-fidelity prototypes.

  • Did you create high- or low-fidelity wireframes?

  • What tool did you use for wireframing?

  • Did you test with the wireframes? What were your findings?

  • How many iterations did you make?

Coming Soon!

UI Design

Once the usability issues were resolved, I moved on to design the final screens in Figma. My goal was to create a visual identity that’s aligned with the brand’s values and message, which is: “brand motto”. Also, I’ve checked the competition and took a deep dive into my catalog of references for inspiration.

  • What kind of visual style did you follow and why? (Fresh, corporate, dark, light?)

  • Did you follow any popular guidelines? (Material Design, iOS Styleguide, etc?)

  • What platforms and devices did you design for?

  • How does your final design reflect your learnings about your users?
