OBJECTIVE

Many home appliances do not give users enough information on their status of how long they will take to do their specified task. For example, ovens don’t say how long they will preheat and it can be difficult ot know how long to cook something for. The goal is to design an intuitive app that will provide real-time updates to users about their kitchen appliances and devices in their home that is customizable.

INITIAL SKETCHES

Using user personas, task flows, and information architecture, I began sketching initial ideas for the screens to get feedback from my peers.

STYLE GUIDE

I wanted the app to appeal to people who are new to using to cooking and using their appliances. The goal is to make the app feel friendly, warm, and not daunting as some appliances are for first time users. I used interesting, bold icons to appeal to a younger audience and intrigue them beyond just using more basic appliance icons.

POSTER ADVERTISEMENT

As a way to promote the app to college students looking for internships, I designed a poster meant to go on college campuses that advertises the app to students passing by.
