Synn Inn Design – Innovative Design Cluster


— ROLE

UI/UX Designer


— TOOLS

Figma, Miro, SCRUM, Illustrator, Discord


The Synn Inn Design project was initiated with funding from the European Union under the Business Program "Entrepreneurship & Innovation." It forms a part of the entrepreneurial activities within the Innovative Design Cluster in Greece.


This project addresses the need for a versatile multi functional platform where designers can showcase their work and connect with potential employers, akin to a localized version of Behance or Dribbble within Greece.

Objective


The primary objective was to develop a distinctive user interface and address usability issues found in existing platforms like Behance, Dribble and other similar platforms.



My Role:


I played a key role in assessing previous background research on similar platforms and identifying user needs through interviews that were already done, utilize them and create use cases and user personas.


Based on these insights, I proposed a simplified and modernized UI. Collaborating closely with the Head of Design, we crafted the overall aesthetic and proposed a comprehensive solution to the cluster.



Personas

  • Conducted extensive user research and developed comprehensive user personas to inform design decisions.

USER PERSONAS

Low Fidelity

A first rough draft with low fidelity prototypes of the system was created using Figma

Low Fidelity Prototypes

High Fidelity

  • After thorough consultations with project stakeholders, we advanced to developing high fidelity prototypes, ensuring a polished and user-friendly design.

  • Developed a detailed design system to guide developers in implementing the components accurately. This design system provided a comprehensive overview of all elements, facilitating a more efficient task breakdown and implementation process.


PROJECT CARDS

Design System


  • Prepared a robust design system that outlines all components, aiding developers in accurate and consistent implementation.

Below are screenshots showcasing some of the integrated components within the high fidelity prototypes, demonstrating the seamless and intuitive user experience we aimed to achieve.
