I was invited to join a team working on a real commercial project in the area of AI/Blockchain. The app's goal is to serve as a virtual assistant combining multiple AI engines in one place. The product is currently in beta testing and will be presented to the investors. After this stage we will further develop the product.
My role:
UX/UI designer
My responsibilities:
User research, information architecture, wireframing, visual design, prototyping
My approach to the design system was limited by the company's branding. Therefore I created a few versions of similar color themes and typography, from which the team selected one final version.
Sitemap
First I created the sitemap to present to the team. Decision has been made to guide the user through a few introductory screens before reaching to the web app itself.
Developing the web app
Because of the wide user group, the web app's UI had to be easy to use and navigate both by younger and older generation. I proposed to the team a proven solution based on the notion that most users are well versed with text apps like WhatsApp. The interaction with the assistant therefore will look like a regular chat.
Dark theme
In order to fulfill WCAG requirements it was necessary to implement dark theme. I had much fun designing it using variables in Figma.
