SDG's sticker book
Overview
We were assigned a project to create six smartwatch UI screens which would showcase any type of content we like i.e water intake, payments, etc. The goal of this task was to design in a shorter time than we were used to and to get us back into the creative flow of designing.
Research
My research for this project began with mind-mapping ideas of the content I could show on the screens. I decided on a safety app, aimed for women which lead me to look at existing safety apps and although there are quite a few, there are few that are compatible with smart watches.
Sketches
After I conducted my research I moved on to create sketches and I had so many ideas that I tried to make fit into one tiny device, which ended up not working and was overall impracticable. I then simplified my sketches and I was very happy with those so I moved on to making them into wireframes.
Wireframes
Wire framing my sketches allowed me to finalise the layout of my screens and show what pages I needed to include to complete the user flow.
Once I was happy with my wireframes I started to create low resolution mockups of the UI. So adding colour, typography and overall , paying closer attention to the design aspect the UI.
Lo-fi mockups
Hi-fi mockups
My hi-fi mockups shows the inclusion of my bright and colourful images that bring the application to life. I wanted to create images that showed specific steps of the experiment so that the . user had a visual aid to follow along with however, I wanted them to follow a comic book style.
To create my photos I used Midjourney which is a generative AI program that creates images from text prompt and allowed me to create consistent images in my chosen style with exquisite detail.
