UX/UI

The Project

Create the initial design documentation for a new digital product or service concept.

This documentation must communicate the concept effectively, using visual and written means in a presentation - a ‘pitch-deck’.

In addition to the concept, you must highlight how design thinking has been employed at each stage, including the specific methodologies and processes used.

The Feedback

“This design concept is a complete joy to me, as you all know. You build such a solid and effective foundation and pay such attention to each stage of the process, document it and present it so cleanly and engagingly, it's just a joy. It all looks effortless - but the simplicity of presentation belies the thought and effort that went into the development of your concept, I know. And so yes, you tick all the boxes on the grading sheet that I am looking for - effective user research; demonstration of the Design Thinking process; visual and verbal presentation - but there's also a level of polish and command of process that elevates this piece of work towards the highest grades.”
