From left to right: Homepage, Property Listing Page, Property Detail Page, Calendar/Date Selection Page, Checkout, Confirmation page. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1609902930716-DP4T45XUXBBM9MM5FPQV/user+journey.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 10 Continued A selection of user journeys for the mobile booking flow demonstrated here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1609902984774-F92NDIW82UU1GQ965WJY/THE+BRAND.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 10 Continued A mood board created for the brand, Saltwater. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-10 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1609901255386-7OHSJF8ULKZX28XG8HHO/SW+screens+1.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1609901299078-J4PNZ1C6X3UTQSI6807A/SW+screens+2.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 10 I stepped away from the micro Daily UI challenges to tackle a larger design challenge. Here, I was tasked with creating a mobile booking process for a collection of hotel properties. I spent time sketching, defining the brand, building a basic design system, and designing key pages and interactions. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-09 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594792258654-TLSJQ0PUOYMLH6BW3QNZ/Music+Player.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 09 For this challenge, I had to design a music player. Again breaking out of my usual style, I created a gradient heavy player where color themes could be set by the artist. Users can play the artist’s full library or individual songs; users can also save the artist and favorite individual songs. If the user wants to know more about the artist, they can tap the hamburger menu icon for access to specific About sections (Bio, Records Released, Upcoming Shows, etc). http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-08 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1609904961139-U4LSSS02FHEXWXK4EIOA/404.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 08 For this challenge, I really wanted to break outside of my typical design patterns and explore a new type of system and structure. Since this is a 404 page, I wanted to ensure CTAs were clear, while still maintaining a fun and personality-driven experience. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-07 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594702836630-LF8KCG1WWW5QKPVOMY8T/Settings+Screen.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 07 For this challenge, I had to design a settings page. I chose a simple toggle-heavy page, where users can enable and disable their Notifications settings via toggle. I wanted to make this typically dry page a little more fun and graphic, while still focusing the user’s actions on the tasks at hand. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-06 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594396002080-74SBXBLODUXBKLVH8T1Y/User+Profiles.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 06 I really enjoyed diving into this concept, where I designed a user profile for a book club website or app. In this concept, users would create profiles to track their reading progress, share book reviews and recommendations, and keep a reading list. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594396100345-G1CR7TBOKASQ1A7WJA0Z/Mobile+-+User+Profile.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 06 Here’s a look at the full page. I would like to revisit this challenge to build out other states – how users can follow and message one-another, how different pages would appear, etc. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-05 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594395615185-KB4IIZWIM1N34VTUHHN2/Mobile+App+Icons.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 05 This was a short and sweet challenge! I designed an app icon for an “orange” related brand that was light and straight-forward. I wanted to create something easily recognizable that could scale well. I think this app icon could be used for a tracker or list app, or even a workout of meditation app. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-04 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594395376344-IA2PTF723588L7VSG2NW/Mobile+Mortgage+Calculator.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 04 For this challenge, I designed a mortgage calculator. I spent ~2 hours ideating and designing this calculator. Given my self-imposed time limit, I struggled to define what I wanted this brand to represent, where this calculator was coming from & how it would fit into a larger brand ecosystem. I would like to revisit this design to continue to refine and create a more cohesive style. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-03 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594311980109-6X5056TSW3X6UE55XERS/Desktop+_+candle+landing.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 03 For this challenge, I designed a landing page for a seasonal candle subscription. I focused on highlighting the product and its unique selling propositions. As the user views the page, the candle details alongside the image will “pop” on the screen. As the user scrolls, the candle and subsequent color scheme will change – throughout the page, all four seasons will be highlighted. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594312013067-P2KD4WE1U4NLR6A6RZUI/Desktop+%E2%80%93+Candle+Landing+Page.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 03 I spent about 2-3 hours on this initial design. I hope to revisit this day’s challenge and continue to build out the various elements, brining in animation and interaction points. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-02 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594310542564-8JYD7T9LPMWQ27QU49WF/Desktop+%E2%80%93+CC+Checkout+Form.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 02 For today’s challenge, I wanted to streamline the payment process, providing concise form fields and a refined, simplified form flow. http://www.akdonn.com/blog/daily-ui-challenge-01 monthly 0.5 2025-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1594310107555-RN5UL1SJ9OBSS91WRDTH/Desktop+%2B+Mobile+%E2%80%93+Sign+Up+Form.png Blog - Daily UI Challenge – 01 For today’s challenge, I designed a simple Account Sign Up form. I focused on an easily responsive form design that could be used for a variety of brand types.

for the redesign of jacobspillow.org while a Junior UX Designer at Barrel NY. A challenge was considering on- and off-season calendar views (on-season has a lot of events, off-season has barely any) and how to design something sleek and useable for both instances. I thought through user flows and conducted competitor research to understand how information is best understood via calendars. The filter system for the calendar is two tier and allows for super customizable searching. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1505622994637-0IITBCJJ8W9YVSRH1RER/jacobspillowmock1.jpg Jacob's Pillow - PERFORMANCE PAGE (Copy) PERFORMANCE PAGE I considered how key data on this page (date, ticket link, description, etc.) would be pulled into the calendar via the back-end of the website. I wanted to draw attention to the main goal– buying tickets– via the Buy Tickets button placement. Keeping the button both in the header and predominantly on the sidebar of the page was the best solution to guide users on the ticket buying path. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1505623024097-AHG7MPQE7SHQBE1J91TV/jacobspillowmock2.jpg Jacob's Pillow - SCHOOL APPLICATION (Copy) SCHOOL APPLICATION To keep the number of page templates reasonable, I altered the Performance Page layout (left) to also work as the school application page. The interior paragraph text included styling options for links and subheadings. I worked with the Design team to develop style guide implications for this complex page in order to achieve the correct hierarchy of information. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1505623058097-V3M7OX9HN34LTGH8Q9KU/JPNAV.png Jacob's Pillow - NAVIGATION WIREFRAME (Copy) NAVIGATION WIREFRAME A rough draft wireframe that led to the site's final navigation. This wireframe reflects the site's new architecture and hierarchy via the main menu and the dropdown menus. The hierarchy of pages is apparent in the bolded "heading" categories and the smaller "sub categories" listed beneath them. This mockup was eventually put into Invision, a prototyping app, to present to clients in a realistic and interactive manner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1505623085887-01LXQ620IOZ6Y5P508L9/JP%2Bmobile%2Bcalendar%2B3.png Jacob's Pillow - MOBILE CALENDAR WIREFRAME (Copy) MOBILE CALENDAR WIREFRAME An example of a rough draft wireframe that led to the site's final calendar. I designed the mobile and desktop calendar views simultaneously to ensure the responsive design was feasible. A challenge for the mobile calendar was ensuring the different event types were clear– that is why icons/visuals were chosen to portray different features of various events. The date and day of week would be sticky, so users would scroll through the event info, with the date and day of week refreshing as they scrolled into a new section. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57ba2ec6e58c62ccf4c5a6b9/1505623248690-VRJD2FP82QC193E41J2F/JacobsPillow_AD-for-BARREL-Wireframe-Homepage.png Jacob's Pillow - HOMEPAGE WIREFRAME (Copy) HOMEPAGE WIREFRAME This is a final draft of the Jacob's Pillow homepage wireframe.
