The research results provided important information about the Vessel audience - people that care about their health and nutrition.  
  
It is someone who exercises regularly and focuses on a healthy diet. Users who are already tracking their data: steps, heart rate, sleep, etc. and want to improve or optimize their health.

Moodboard

## Visual References

We drew from natural simplicity to craft the app’s interface with clean shapes and minimalist accents, organic ingredient textures, authentic and joyful expressions. 

The result is a light, natural aesthetic that enhances user experience with effortless beauty.

### Body Aesthetic

Vessel’s visual style for nude brand photography should feel minimalistic and aspirational, yet remain clean and bright. Nude portraits should be shot from tasteful and interesting angles to show the body

### Macro Textures

Photography of macro textures include a huge amount of ingredients and food close up detail shots. The cropping and lighting for these detailed images should be associated with nature and health.

### Portraits expression

The expression of the portraits should feel optimistic, natural and in the moment. It is important to capture genuine moments and expressions.

Typography

## Suitable font pair

For this project, we chose a combination of **Banana** and **Noe Book** typefaces to **strike a balance** between modern character and emotional warmth.   
  
Banana, used for headlines, adds a **friendly and relaxed sense** with its soft, rounded forms, making it ideal for accents.   
  
The body text font, Noe Book brings **clarity and structure** with its elegant design. Together, these two fonts create a harmonious visual language that blends style with readability.

Сolor palette

## Freshness and naturalness in UI solution

The Vessel color palette is designed to feel fresh and clean. It is elevated and inviting. The mix of warm and cool hues in a variety of different shades allows for visual flexibility and contrast. The color palette of the Vessel consists of **natural colors of vegetables and fruits**.

Conceptual design

## Look and Feel Concept

To understand that we are on the same page with a stakeholder, we have made the “Look and feel” concept with new design.   
  
We developed three design concept options for the Main Screen featuring the Wellness Score and To-Do’s. Each explores a unique layout and visual approach to balance motivation, clarity, and ease of daily tracking.

Wireframes

## From Concept to Sketch

Wireframes are the skeleton view of the app that allow us to focus on key functions, elements, and actions to improve the usability before starting to reskin the app.

Design components

## Cards Framework

After conducting a detailed research we found out that the smallest delays cause rejection of the product. This led us to design a responsive, intuitive interface that supports smooth, focused interaction at every step.

Problem statement

## Scanning Problem

The problem we faced during the scanning was that some users didn't understand how to scan the card in the right way. There were some issues with lights, crop and shadows.

## Solutions

### 01 - Smart Scan Guide

We need to make the scanning instruction flow for the user to make them better understand what they should do and explain in what way they need to scan the card.

### 02 - Clear recommendations

Card needs to be well lit, without shadows, droplets or any glare or bright reflections on any part of it.

Usability testing

## Main page iterations

After taking a test, the user will get results. Vessel use essential health metrics like nutrition, hydration, and stress levels to help make you feel, perform and look better by helping you get rid of toxins and stress.  
  
The key task was to show **11 goals results on one page** in a compact and accurate way.

## Key Features

We've taken the findings from the usability test and have iterated the design to improve the user experience. We came up with 55 iterations of this screen to make it easy to use and understand.

### How it works

We have made the tabs with all goals on the first main graph. Switching between the tabs changes the graph indicators and content under the graph because it shows every specific goal information.

Usability testing

## Cards iterations

At first the tests result cards were large and had pictures, but in the process we’ve made them smaller in order to show more results and fit above the fold.

## Key insights

The card has been transformed a lot of times because of different functions and information that stakeholder wanted to put inside it. We need to fit more content above the fold. We have decreased the cards height to fit more cards on one screen.

### Wellness Graph

All blocks changes were made with a goal to show more functions in less space to make more content fit above the fold.
