Mobile App

Atria is an art gallery mobile app combining exhibition ticketing, an art marketplace with live bidding, and a social layer for artists and collectors.

Art discovery is fragmented — galleries, auctions, and artist profiles live on separate platforms. There is no single space that connects discovery, purchase, and community.

6 user interviews revealed collectors have no single place to discover, buy, and track art.

POV: art buyers need a unified discovery + purchase experience, not 3 separate apps.

Chose live bidding as the differentiator — no competitor had it on mobile.

Dark navy system chosen for gallery feel — contrast tested to WCAG AA.

13 participants. Iterated nav labels after 8/13 missed the bidding tab on first pass.

Full hi-fi shipped across 8 screens. 85% usability success rate. Navigation iterated 2× based on test findings.

Test the IA earlier — nav confusion caught late.

Add an artist onboarding flow in v2.
