What are we trying to solve?

Leading a design sprint workshop to unpack the opportunity space.

Product hypothesis: Domestic art collectors want to centralize and enjoy their collections without spending too much time in the archiving process.

The concept of a room composition tool stood out from the various prototypes we tested with our audience. Our strategy: To deliver a proof of concept for a limited group of users and investors to further explore the product/market fit.

Shaping the MVP structure with the product manager and engineer.

Mapping the mvp screens and features

I worked with the product manager and lead engineer to define the necessary tasks, views and features. Ready to outline a sprint plan and enter the implementation phase.

Establishing design principles with the brand / visual designer.

Necker cube’s thin lines and prominent white space as a design principle for panel divisions and hierarchy.

A software made to both archive and contemplate the art collection, balancing functional and expressive UI spaces.

Designing a system of panels, views, UI elements, and how they are articulated together to access and present information.

Interaction Design:
Exploring the workflow of creating an artwork ensemble

Iteration one: Letting the user focus on art curation first, then composition

Iteration two: Keeping the room as a central element of the interface during the whole process

Helping users guess artwork sizes using everyday objects as references.

Handling errors and corner cases by signaling incoherent states to the user.

On the path to a public launch

Launching the private MVP in July 2020 leads the path to a future public release, supported by a mobile app to capture artworks and a proper onboarding process.
