Recycle+ App
UI/UX DESIGN
Founded in 2020, Recycle+ is a waste management app that is used to help individuals reduce their waste gradually and eventually living a zero-waste lifestyle. We know that waste management is not just a nation issue but a global problem. Therefore, on a micro-level, I created an app that will help attempt to solve a national challenge by adjusting how users manage their waste based on their lifestyles.
Tools: Adobe XD, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop
Design process
For this project called Recycle+, I used a human-centered design model where I would be able to create a final design solution which would be reinforced by the needs of users and research findings from the users who would use this app.
Used an empathy map to brainstorm possible design solutions with three potential user’s perspectives.
wireframe
Developed a wireframe to translate my written ideas and matter into a visual layout. I consider this part to be the skeletal framework of the design that I want to begin with. I designed wireframes for each screen starting from onboarding to the end of the user flow to present my thinking in a visual layout form.
style guide
Created a design that gives the feel of going-green by included a color palette that I feel symbolizes that and included some illustrations to keep the users intrigued throughout.
final protype
Here is the final app and which was made to be easy to follow but also incorporate into one’s daily lifestyle.
