Process

The LiaExpress project started off with a sprint within the team, data gathering and user testing iterations. We conducted research and competitor analysis for LiaExpress's meet-up platform. By identifying key user needs and pain points, we developed a strategy to address these challenges.

Our goal was to create a streamlined and innovative solution without designing too far outside YRGO's original brand identity. Our focus was also on keeping it simple with easy navigation to avoid unnecessary clicks.

After prototyping, we tested our concepts with users in person and through maze, to identify areas for improvement. We refined our designs based on key insights gathered from these tests, enhancing the prototype's effectiveness.

Outcome

The YRGO inspired platform, LiaExpress, consists of an application form for companies and a sign up function for students. The purpose is to simplify for both parties by creating sub-categories in the application form, which also clarifies for students which companies would suit their competences best while exploring the gallery of which companies who are attending the meet-up.

We created new icons inspired by the YRGO logo to give our design a fresh, innovative feel while preserving the original brand identity.

It was truly educational to work with developers and fun to gain insight of what the future working life looks like.
