Research Define & Ideate Design Test
Research
To initiate the project, my first step involved conducting thorough research, focusing on the target audience and their specific needs.
From my research, here are the findings I was able to come up with
Define
Utilizing the insights gathered from interviews, I developed a persona embodying the ideal user of the application. This persona facilitated the generation of more effective solutions by providing a comprehensive understanding of user goals, pain points, and overall characteristics.
Ideate
I crafted a comprehensive site map detailing the structure and organization of the content on the website. The diagram below provides a concise yet thorough description of the user flow for the app.
Design
Wireframes
After completing all the research and planning, I began designing solutions. I prioritized creating wireframes first, as they allow for easier adjustments before finalizing UI elements.
Test
Iterations
After completing my high-fidelity design prototype, I dedicated time to share it with potential app users to gather feedback on the user experience. Following the testing phase, I uncovered the following insights.
Summary
This project emphasized that design extends beyond aesthetics; it involves addressing diverse user needs and considerations. To achieve this, I emphasized exploring effective user research methods, conducting insightful interviews, and avoiding personal biases in my conclusions.
