Wayfarer
10-Hour Design Challenge
As part of the foundation course at Design Lab Bootcamps, I synthesized all my learnings into a comprehensive 10-hour UI design brief. This project brought together the core concepts and skills acquired during the foundation course
Design Brief
You’ve been approached by Wayfarer, a travel website, to create a new landing page and mobile app design. Wayfarer is a place for travelers to discover new locations to visit around the world.
Although it doesn’t directly sell any trips, flights, or accommodation on the site, people use it as a tool for researching where to travel next, based on their preferences.
Wayfarer’s target audience is anyone between the ages of 21 and 30 who travels frequently and is in search of new adventures.
Deliverable 1 Instructions: Desktop + App Screens
A desktop landing page for Wayfarer
Design the homepage that users will see when they first find Wayfarer. It needs to show featured destinations, explain briefly what Wayfarer is, and include a call-to-action to sign up for the newsletter.
Requirements
Design one (1) desktop size page. The design must include:
Navigation to other pages or sections on the site.
Simple search functionality to find destinations
A grid or list view of featured destinations (these would link through to further details)
Call-to-action to sign up for the newsletter
A footer section including at least a copyright date and some links to other pages.
An iOS or Android mobile smartphone app for Wayfarer
Making sure to coordinate the design with the landing page you just worked on, create 3 sample screens for an iOS or Android mobile smartphone app. This app aims to give travelers a way of accessing information about destinations while they’re on the move.
Requirements
Create designs for these 3 screens:
Screen 1: List of destinations
Screen 2: A “detail” screen, giving full information about a destination
Screen 3: One of the following: Sign-in screen; Search screen; Account settings screen
