Group Discussion

Since there was no budget for a comprehensive user research, I planned a quick study with my collegeaues as a group discussion. This gave me a glimpse of the possible problem areas and pain points and come up with actionable ideas.



USER PERSONA

The above research was also synthesized to develop a persona. This was primarily used to ensure that I was on the same page as the client when it came to defining the target audience.



Task Flow

In the next step, I worked closely with the client to establish a data inventory. Based on this, relationship between various features were identified. This knowledge was used to develop content flow diagrams.

Visual Design

Once the skeleton of the product was ready and approved, I came up with suitable content to set the right tone for the product. The colors were used from DTC's brand guidelines which was Red, Beige, Black and White and the look was inspired from Microsoft's Metro UI.
