Design Sprint Week 1

The first week of the design sprint- Mapping and Sketches.

This week consisted of several steps such as; the brief breakdown, the primary goals and secondary goals, assumptions, sprint questions to answer, map and target and the sketches

Brief: Unilodge, the client is a business of apartment. Students rent apartments at Unilodge. Unilodge asks for a new feature in his existing application to help students to find roommates and to help them to have a better experience at unilodge.

Those are the first steps: primary and secondary goals. Those questions are here to help to focus on the problem and as designers, we needed to know what was the purpose of this project.

The mapping is the process of the user using the application. The questions in the previous steps are placed on this board to know where the designer needs to focus.

The sketches are the starting point of the ideas and the development of the ideas. Now the principles of design must be taken into consideration as these are the principles that will make the application appealing.

In the solution sketched was the main idea I have chosen for the final solution of the feature of unilodge. The home page for the application including the feature of finding roommates, the profile layout, and the calendar feature. The calendar has been including so that students can have a better experience and can be more dicipline in their life. Also, it was included so that they can organize their households with their roommates as they will be able to share their calendars.
