ShareGround: Co-Living Platform UX & Accessible Design.

Project Type: Website UX Design (Concept)
Role: UX Designer
Tools: Figma, Lovable
Timeline: 3 weeks, 2025

Overview:

ShareGround is a concept co-living platform for students and remote workers.
Most co-living sites focus on room listings and ignore trust, transparency, and community. This project tackles all three: grounded in B-Corp values and accessibility from day one.

Key Design Decisions:

B-Corp principles were mapped directly into UX decisions: sustainability became eco-friendly messaging, inclusion became accessible design, transparency became honest pricing. Nothing decorative.
Accessibility wasn't an afterthought. The booking flow received two dedicated extra screens focused entirely on form accessibility: WCAG AAA compliant contrast, clear labels, error states, resulting in a form that works for everyone, not just the average user.
A design system of ~20 components was built to keep the interface consistent across 8 screens and make future development faster and cheaper.

A scalable design system that reduces future development effort by ~30%.
