02.Mid-Fi
 



	In the mid-fi phase, PawMate underwent rigorous testing and iteration, refining its features and design flows based on user feedback. We strategically tested, excluded, and included various features to optimize the overall user experience.

	Brand Identity
 



	Color Palette &#124; Icon

To harmonize with the gamification theme, we decided with a particular emphasis on the vibrant shade of green and Yellow. The “protective” green and “vibrant” yellow we chose for the brand's visual identity not only enhances aesthetic appeal but also serves as a meaningful symbol, resonating with the core values and mission of PawMate. 


&#60;img width="1561" height="533" width_o="1561" height_o="533" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/cfa2943adfdd2dec0a2ff5517358ff679c1cb2070f16500b0645d793e9612010/Frame-23736.png" data-mid="217228343" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/cfa2943adfdd2dec0a2ff5517358ff679c1cb2070f16500b0645d793e9612010/Frame-23736.png" /&#62;









	Font &#124; Tagline
In shaping PawMate’s visual identity, our font choices were pivotal in reinforcing the brand's theme and design. We went for Leah Gaviota's playful cursive and Nunito's clean, modern style. Together, they strike a balance that adds charm and readability, enhancing the brand's overall vibe.

Animation&#38;nbsp;



	Through multiple rounds of user testing, we strive to develop a rational and intuitive interactive design and animations that not only align with the gaming theme but also deliver the most engaging user experience.


	

	
&#60;img width="280" height="512" width_o="280" height_o="512" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0b14eea9abdf4039ccbdb5e4849af8bc25a6198953fb3add30fcffe75fcd1fbe/Flow-3512p-25fps.gif" data-mid="217228378" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/280/i/0b14eea9abdf4039ccbdb5e4849af8bc25a6198953fb3add30fcffe75fcd1fbe/Flow-3512p-25fps.gif" /&#62;

	GamificationWith the PawMates introduction card design, we can utilize it in various situations, including the compare section, which evokes a 1 vs 1 Fighting Games vibe.
	




	
	Meanwhile, the subtle card-swiping micro- engagement mimics the experience of a dating app (or game, haha). By swiping the card in different directions, you can either express interest in the PawMates or hide them from future searches.

	Design System



	By establishing a design system before we heading off to the Hi-Fi Prototype, it enables our team of three to collaborate seamlessly and stay on the same page even when working in different times and locations. This approach not only maintains consistency in our work but also speeds up the process. It serves as a helpful guide for the development team, eliminating inconsistencies and simplifying app building.

A.Problem Discovery



	Communication apprehension (AKA social anxiety) is a degree or measure of the anxiety triggered by the real or anticipated communication act.


I chose this topic because it troubles me a lot. After my research, I was shocked to learn that many people are actually suffering from social anxiety.

B.Research

01.Desk Research&#38;nbsp;



	During my desk research, I delved deeply into the potential causes of social anxiety and the various symptoms that people experience. What I found is that the causes and symptoms of social anxiety can vary from person to person.
 Therefore, it's crucial to have customized functions that cater to each user's specific preferences. By doing so, the app can provide a personalized solution that can help users manage their social anxiety in their daily life.

02. Competitive Audit&#38;nbsp;

&#60;img width="1920" height="793" width_o="1920" height_o="793" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8674198d0e2a85e3b598237bb5439c30b138a4f35fc1790625e72ddf0379edb7/Slide-16_9---9.png" data-mid="178260214" border="0"  src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8674198d0e2a85e3b598237bb5439c30b138a4f35fc1790625e72ddf0379edb7/Slide-16_9---9.png" /&#62;



	I conducted a competitive audit analyzing existing anxiety coping apps such as Calm, Headspace, and Youper with the aim of differentiating my product from theirs. 
While these apps have a large audio library, they lack personalization and target users in a general way. Therefore, I decided to approach the solution with a more customized experience for each user, based on their individual interests and audio preferences.


	





03. InterviewsTo gain insights into the various causes of anxiety, I conducted interviews with eight individuals and collected over 100 post-it notes. Through this process, I was able to generate 14 insights and 5 meta-insights, which led to the development of 5 HMW (How Might We) questions.
 The interviewees were primarily between the ages of 20 to 35, as I wanted to target the potential users of my product. I used the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) to identify interviewees who were introverted, as they are more likely to experience social anxiety.

	During the interviews, I asked the participants to complete two anxiety quizzes. At the beginning of the interview, they self-assessed their social anxiety level. Then, 30 minutes into the interview, they took the Liebowitz Anxiety Scale. 
The results varied greatly among the participants, highlighting the fact that many people may not be aware of their mental condition without the use of a professional scaling system. This information may also be a crucial element in developing my product.

	The inspiration for the logo came from the combination of text bubbles and ocean waves, resulting in the whale icon.
 To create a calming vibe for the app, I opted for an all sans-serif, lowercase font. I also used a blue color palette that matched the ocean and whale theme.

The Fnji 2021 furniture collection annual launch event is centered around the theme of SOUTH · EAST · NORTH · WEST. One of the standout pieces in the collection is the Carousel Table, inspired by the traditional Chinese origami fortune teller game, known as 东南西北 (which means south, east, north, and west).

01.Sketches

	
Initially, I experimented with various iterations of the origami's exact shape and form as a design element. However, I realized that these sketches were too straightforward for origami itself and decided to pivot to the pattern of the Carousel Table instead.

02.FINAL &#38;amp; MOTION

	
To maintain consistency with the theme, I used a combination of shadow and lines to create the illusion of three-dimensional folded paper on a two-dimensional medium during the launch event. This approach aimed to capture the essence of the tactile origami paper.

A.Problem Discovery



	The first step is problems discovering, I went through the original website, since it’s my first time doing this, I just tried to find out what irritates me intuitively, and analyze the reason why it doesn’t make sense to me.



Unclear BrandinLengthy forms, Unnecessary questions

01.Usability Heuristics&#38;nbsp;



	I listed the problems I found and graded them following the Jakob’s 10 Usability Heuristics. There are some minor problems like the typo, some inconsistent buttons, but the two major problems I discover is the unclear branding and the lengthy forms which keep users away.

02. Adjacent industry audit&#38;nbsp;



	After finding these two major problems, I started to look into adjacent industry to get more idea of what are others in the industry doing. The two main websites I chose is duolingo and khan, both of them embrace their brand identity and visual style very well.

B.Design &#38;amp; Ideation



01.Hypothesis&#38;nbsp;


It is better to have the process detailed and specific, 
the application form need to shorten and well sorted to reduce the bounce rate. 

cute&#38;amp;friendly aesthetic to clarify brand identity




	Based on my graphic background, I started to focus on the unclear branding of this website and try to provide a solution using visual design. 

I want to user to

first create account 
→ choose tutor
→ pick time 
→ payment 
→ confirmation
→ they have access to their profile.

02.Low-Fidelity Sketches&#38;nbsp;




	I make the form detailed but concise to solve the bounce rate and set the brand identity cute and friendly. 

For example, have a cat / a character as a mascot to go through the steps with the users.

03.Mid-Fidelity Sketches&#38;nbsp;




	 I incorporate this golden color because it usually symbolizes success and achievement, which is what users want to get from a tutor website, and I have all the button and elements rounded and mellow to be more approachable.

*Second Hypothesis&#38;nbsp;


 I want it to be more direct and simple to reduce the bounce rate, users directly book tutor on the info page and doesn’t have to create an account. And the branding style will be simple and linear to create a professional mood.

C.User Testing



01.Interview



	Through the usability tests, I learned what the target users really want, and what directions they prefer. 

I interviewed four people in total, they are people around 20 and 30 who used to work as a tutor before or have experience with a tutor in the past, it definitely helped me to know more about what users focus more on when they are choosing their own tutors.

02.Synthesis



 Based on the feedback I received during the interview, I felt it was important to utilize annotations with emojis to better express users' emotions towards a specific action. This approach enabled me to understand and grasp their thoughts and feelings more effectively. Additionally, I created a user emotion journey map based on their feedback, which provided valuable insights into the interviewer's reactions.

If the feedback received was positive, I utilized a smiley face emoji to represent it. In instances where constructive criticism was provided, I used a thinking emoji to indicate that there were areas for improvement. Similarly, if the feedback contained helpful and innovative ideas, I employed a light bulb emoji to represent them.

03.Problems &#38;amp; Solutions



After analyzing the feedback, I identified the problems from my lo-fi and mid-fi prototypes and concluded the areas where I need to improve.


PROBLEMBranding Identity not strong engouh
Little information before sign up
Need to go back and forth to choose tutor and timeNot attractive enough to place order


	SOLUTIONBring in illustraions, and keep visual smooth and rounded
Move the sign up button down below the info on Home PageAdding available time slot on individual tutor info pageIncluding discount/free trial















D.Hi-Fidelity Prototype




	I have refined the branding by creating a logo that features the initials 'T' and 'O'. The 'T' is designed to resemble an open book, while the 'O' is in the shape of a magnifying glass. The slogan for the brand is 'One-to-One Tutoring for Every Student'.

	I have developed several combinations of icons and logotypes that feature these elements. The brand colors I have chosen are success gold, white, and black

E.Learning &#38;amp; Next Steps
01.Reflections

	I have gained familiarity with the UI/UX project process and have become a lot more proficient in the relevant software. During interviews, I have learned to avoid being defensive and instead focus on listening actively to feedback. Additionally, I have realized the importance of thinking broadly at the beginning of a project in order to avoid narrow solutions and explore a wider range of possibilities.

02.Next Steps

	To improve the website, I plan to refine the branding even more, including the use of original illustrations to create a unique visual identity. I also intend to accentuate the discount offers more prominently on the home page to attract more customers. To ensure a smooth user experience, I would love to conduct more rounds of usability testing to identify and address any issues that may arise.

	I analyzed the current website and improved the design
of Fnji's official website to be more modern according to
the updated brand design,and to be more user-friendly.
We simplified the navigation, added prominent
calls-to-action, and incorporated minimalistic visuals to
enhance engagement. The updated design aims to provide
a seamless user experience and increase conversion

The National Alliance on Mental Health is my senior project aimed at raising awareness of mental illness.Mental health and substance use disorders affect around 13% of the world's population and have been exacerbated by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In the United States, the outbreak has already affected the mental health of 59% of people.
To help illustrate the negative emotions associated with mental health issues, I decided to use only typography in my designs. &#38;nbsp;

01.Logo

	
Using visual imagery to raise awareness about mental health and depression can be an effective way to reach a large audience. I use the image of a brain as a cloud and a sun to represent mental health and positive emotions respectively as a metaphoric way to convey the importance of taking care of our mental well-being.

02.Visuals

	
I used typography to express the different emotions on different layers. They will gradually lay on top of each other and depict a chaotic scene which is how people have depression feel inward.

03.Motion Graphics

	
The posters can work not only as static images but also as motion advertising videos when published. This approach can help engage viewers in a more dynamic way and potentially reach a wider audience.
