Initially, after scrapping my old wireframes, I decided to play about with multiple interfaces which I feel would fit my project. Although, without trying to get carried away I remembered three things I want the essence of my project to convey; boldness, simplicity and structure. After multiple iterations, I decided that I am happy with…Continue Reading #IXD304 – Wireframe Sketches
