WHAT DID I DO THERE?
I designed this app with the user experience in mind, creating high-fidelity screens based on client guidelines. This included developing a comprehensive design system and implementing advanced features like image filtering and album creation options. I also worked closely with the development team and CEO to bring RCKIVE to life.
Creating a seamless and intuitive user experience was paramount for RCKIVE. Here's a glimpse into the design process I implemented:
-
Understanding the User: I began by researching current photo printing trends and user behavior. This helped me identify pain points with traditional albums and understand the needs of the "snap-happy" generation.
-
Client Collaboration: Close collaboration with the client ensured the app aligned with their vision. We discussed user personas, key features, and brand identity, translating their needs into design guidelines.
-
High-Fidelity Mockups: Using the client's feedback, I created high-fidelity mockups that visualized the final app interface. These mockups incorporated features like effortless photo selection, customizable box design, and clear order tracking.
-
Design System Development: A comprehensive design system was established to maintain consistency across all app screens. This included defining typography, color schemes, and UI elements for a cohesive and user-friendly experience.
-
Advanced Features: I designed features that enhance the user experience. This included image filtering options for photo editing, intuitive album creation tools for organizing memories, and a streamlined checkout process.
-
Collaboration is Key: Throughout the design process, I maintained open communication with the development team and CEO. This ensured the designs were technically feasible and aligned with the overall business goals.
By focusing on user needs and collaborating closely with the client and team, I crafted a design that makes RCKIVE a joy to use.
