Selected projects

Campus Virtual

A complete redesign of my uni's online campus.

Tasks involved: user research, wireframes, ux writing, prototyping, branding.

Tools used

Figma

The problem

Lack of user-friendly navigation and communication, annoying popups, outdated design, bad notification system. As a result, students struggle to easily and quickly find the information they need.

The solution

1. Home redesign: Easy access to courses, easy navigation and provides clear information.

2. A notification icon: Users will know when a video or a file was updated, or if there are any new messages and announcements.

3. A section for news: No more popups!

4. Calendar redesign: Displays upcoming exams and other assigments.

5. Recently seen section: Provides easy access to the latest browsed content.

6. Friendly message: A motivational or kind message to students to have an enjoyable experience.

7. Modern UI: New color scheme and typography to evoke a sense of innovation, as it is a science and technology university.

The problem

Unintuitive icons, unexpected actions, outdated design, bugs, difficulty connecting components and deleting wires, no CTAs. As a result, users get stressed and ask for help because the software is useless.

The solution

1. A Home page: Easy access to recent files and a CTA to create new ones.

2. Two side bar: One with big icons to quickly find components and a CTA to simulate. The other one to easily access to designing tools and most used components.

3. Circuits redesign: Bigger view, a color scheme to emphasize connections and differentiate wires.

4. Group collaboration: Work at the same time, see who's online and leave notes.

5. Modern UI: Universal icons, dark theme and simplicity.
