A self-directed concept exploring how event teams coordinate tasks across groups.

Role

UX Designer

Scope

Self-directed concept from an online brief: task creation and assignment, cross-team requests, and progress tracking. Naming and branding through high-fidelity prototype.

Team

Solo, self-directed concept project.

Outcome

A concept project designed for practice, so there are no launch or performance metrics.

The Plan App was designed for fun and practice from a brief online. I was to design a mobile app that allows event organizers to manage tasks that are coordinated between multiple teams.

Planning the Plan

The app design was to contain the following functionality:

  • User can create and assign new tasks

  • User can make requests to another team

  • User can raise an alert if a problem occurs, keep track of the progress for all tasks assigned

Demographics

I found a lot of interesting information about event planners, but these two bits stood out. I wanted this to be project management software for event planners. Let’s assume they’re mostly women in their thirties.

Branding

Company Naming

I did some quick exploration of potential company names. Some examples ideas I decided against were Gold Room, Good Times, Tasker and Taski. I landed on “Plan” as a name because I wanted something simple that would easily indicate what the app was for.

Color Palette

For the brand color palette I wanted something bold, fun, a little feminine and I did some image searches and found a good piece of color inspiration. I sampled from this shot and tweaked the colors a bit to land on my final palette.
