Shared Living Task App
I recently published a project on Behance inspired by a real challenge: organizing tasks in shared apartments. The idea came from Ana Lara Carvalho and reflects a common situation for students who move to a new city and need to share responsibilities with roommates, often people they don’t know beforehand.
What started as a UI practice exercise became an important step in strengthening my product thinking. Before designing the screens in Figma, I structured the problem, mapped the main flows, and defined key features such as task creation, segmented notifications, and filtered history. The goal was to understand the system logic before focusing on visuals.
Throughout the process, I also challenged myself to improve my Figma skills, working with auto layout, creating and refining components, and adjusting typography hierarchy and spacing. Iteration played a central role: testing, simplifying, and reorganizing helped bring more intention to interface decisions.
This first version still has room to evolve, but it represents an important step in my growth as a designer, shifting my focus from purely visual outcomes to more thoughtful and structured product decisions.

UI Design portfolio project. Redesign of a fictional digital bank's sign-up flow with a 62% abandonment rate. The solution reduced cognitive load per screen through a 10-step flow with single responsibility per screen and maximum 2 fields each, while integrating mandatory KYC compliance and conditional states on the success screen.
