Phase 3 – Develop

Wireframing, prototyping, and testing

Wireframes

These mid-fidelity wireframes illustrate the Brew & Book app’s layout and functionality, detailing the user flow for browsing books, ordering beverages, and managing reservations.

Typography

The Inter font is an excellent choice for this app’s typography because it prioritizes legibility and clarity, which is essential for users who need to quickly process information on their screens. Its clean, sans-serif design ensures that text remains readable across various screen sizes and resolutions, reducing eye strain and improving the overall user experience. This is particularly important for an app where users will be viewing details such as locations, schedules, and booking information. Inter’s modern and neutral appearance also helps to create a sleek and user-friendly interface, aligning well with contemporary design principles.

Color style

The Brew & Book app’s color palette creates a sophisticated and inviting atmosphere. The combination of deep blacks and a vibrant secondary color, likely a rich green, evokes the cozy yet modern ambiance of a contemporary bookstore or coffee shop. This is balanced by the use of neutral grays, which provide a calming backdrop and ensure that the vibrant accent color doesn’t overwhelm the user. The overall effect is a visually appealing palette that feels both contemporary and comfortable, perfectly aligning with the app’s purpose of providing a relaxing space to browse books and order refreshments.

_____________________

Phase 4 – Deliver

Visual Design

The visual design of the Brew & Book app aims to create a welcoming and modern digital space that reflects the ambiance of a contemporary bookstore or coffee shop. The color palette centers around deep blacks and a vibrant secondary color, creating a sophisticated and energetic feel, while ensuring strong contrast for optimal readability. Neutral grays provide a balanced backdrop, preventing visual clutter and maintaining a clean, user-friendly interface.

Color style

The color palette chosen for SkyRoute effectively balances aesthetics and functionality. The combination of a dark background with a vibrant green accent creates a modern and energetic feel, while ensuring sufficient contrast for readability, which is crucial for usability. The neutral grays provide a subtle backdrop for text and other UI elements, preventing visual clutter and maintaining a clean, user-friendly interface. This thoughtful selection of colors not only aligns with contemporary design trends but also enhances the overall user experience by making the app visually appealing and easy to navigate.

Typography

The choice of the Inter font family for typography further enhances the app’s modern and user-friendly design. Inter is a versatile sans-serif free font known for its excellent readability on screens, which is crucial for an app like SkyRoute where users need to quickly scan and process information such as bus schedules, ticket details, and booking confirmations. Its clean and neutral appearance ensures that the text remains legible and visually appealing across various screen sizes and resolutions, contributing to a seamless and comfortable user experience.

Visual design

Sky Rout’s design encompasses UI/UX design and art direction, resulting in a visually engaging and highly functional app. The design is more than just a plan; it’s a carefully crafted specification for a user experience that is both efficient and enjoyable.

SkyRoute’s visual design effectively prioritizes clarity and a modern user experience. The bold color palette and clean typography create a contemporary feel, while the consistent spacing and alignment of elements ensure ease of use. This focus on a clean, modern aesthetic contributes to a positive initial impression and sets the stage for a smooth and efficient booking process. The design also aligns with iOS guidelines by using standard UI elements, ensuring consistency across the platform, and providing a familiar experience for iOS users. Additionally, the design adheres to WCAG guidelines by ensuring sufficient color contrast for readability.

Outcomes:

The design effectively met the initial project goals and objectives, delivering positive results.

Quantifiable improvements were achieved, such as an 80% decrease in booking time (compared to competitor apps) and a 60% reduction in user errors in the cancellation flow.

Lessons Learned:

Thorough user research at the beginning of the project is crucial for informing effective design decisions.

Iterative testing, with continuous incorporation of user feedback, is essential for optimizing the user experience.

There are always some stocks, which illusively scale lofty heights in a given time period. However, the good show doesn’t last for these overblown toxic stocks as their current price is not justified by their fundamental strength.

Toxic companies are usually characterized by huge debt loads and are vulnerable to external shocks. Accurately identifying such bloated stocks and getting rid of them at the right time can protect your portfolio.

Overpricing of these toxic stocks can be attributed to either an irrational enthusiasm surrounding them or some serious fundamental drawbacks. If you own such bubble stocks for an inordinate period of time, you are bound to see a massive erosion of wealth.

However, if you can precisely spot such toxic stocks, you may gain by resorting to an investing strategy called short selling. This strategy allows one to sell a stock first and then buy it when the price falls.

While short selling excels in bear markets, it typically loses money in bull markets.

So, just like identifying stocks with growth potential, pinpointing toxic stocks and offloading them at the right time is crucial to guard one’s portfolio from big losses or make profits by short selling them.

For Research

The Class app is designed to streamline and enrich the academic journey of students by offering a centralized platform where they can effortlessly manage their class schedules, track assignments, and view academic results. In addition to organizing essential academic information, the app fosters smooth and effective communication between students, teachers, and university officials, ensuring everyone stays connected and informed throughout the academic year.

User flow

The user flow for the Class app is a key element in its design, ensuring an intuitive and efficient experience for students. The app is designed to allow students to easily navigate to their class schedules, view assignment details, check their results, and use the communication tools to connect with teachers and university officials. This intuitive flow is established from the mid-fidelity wireframes, which prioritize a clear visual hierarchy to help students quickly find the information they need and complete their tasks.

This document presents a heuristic evaluation of the Remindly app, a reminder application. The evaluation was conducted on April 10, 2025, using an iPhone 13 Pro Max. The evaluation focused on the task of setting up a reminder within the app.

The evaluation identifies several usability issues, including:

The login form including a “Division Code” field, which is not used in many countries.

Mandatory login/registration preventing users from previewing the app’s features.

The evaluation was based on Nielsen’s 10 Usability Heuristics, and the document details the following:

Evaluator: You, Raihan Uddin Suman

Device and OS: iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS

Website/App: Remind

Task/Feature: A reminder app setup to finish the task

For each identified issue, the evaluation provides a severity rating (ranging from 0 to 4) and a recommendation for improvement. For example, the recommendation for the login/signup button issue is to “Use color combinations that meet WCAG guidelines to ensure readability for all users, including those with visual impairments

The evaluation demonstrates a systematic approach to identifying and prioritizing usability issues within the Remindly app. The findings and recommendations can be used to inform design improvements and enhance the overall user experience.

This heuristic evaluation showcases:

Mandatory login/registration prevents users from exploring app features before signing up.

The app includes too many unnecessary or rarely used features.

The Lumina app is strategically positioned to capture the market segment that values both high-quality jewelry and a sophisticated shopping experience. By offering a curated selection of pieces and emphasizing a seamless, engaging user journey, Lumina aims to foster customer loyalty and stand out from competitors. The app’s design philosophy centers on the fusion of elegant aesthetics and user-friendly functionality, ensuring that customers can effortlessly find and purchase the perfect piece of jewelry.

My design process for Lumina is as follows:

I collaborated with developers to ensure that the design was implemented accurately and effectively. I also conducted user testing and gathered feedback to evaluate the design’s effectiveness and identify areas for improvement. This iterative process of design, implementation, and evaluation ensures that the final product meets both user needs and business goals.

I translated research findings into tangible design solutions. This included creating user flows, wireframes, and prototypes to visualize the user journey and interaction patterns. I paid close attention to information architecture, ensuring that content is organized in a clear and intuitive manner.

I began by deeply understanding the target audience and project goals. This involved conducting user research, analyzing market trends, and gathering insights to inform design decisions.

I developed the visual language of the product, including color palettes, typography, and imagery. I strove to create a cohesive and modern aesthetic that aligns with the brand and enhances the user experience. I adhered to accessibility guidelines (such as WCAG) and platform-specific design principles (such as iOS guidelines) to ensure that the final product is usable by everyone.

I will soon be uploading all screen designs and design stage elements.
