[Team: design] Brainstorming in Figma

[mar-ols]

I think we're all a bit lost on where to start but I've been tinkering in Figma based off Oliver's quick mockup and added some interaction and user stories based off things he's said in the two live sessions we've had, and played around with some logo ideas. This is meant purely as inspiration and not that we have to use any of it. I often find it easier to come up with ideas if I see an existing example. Other designers, you're welcome to copy this and pick apart and change whatever you want if you want to save time on having to create all the cells and table etc.

Basic interaction

Important things to settle on quickly:

• Name
• Logo
• Color scheme
  - Primary color
  - Secondary
  - Accent color
  - Error
• Fonts
• How many/which pages

Great idea, and thanks for starting the discussion. One thing Oliver has mentioned is to not get too stuck up on his mockup, as that was just an "idea", but he expects us to have "our own thing".

Also, for now I added some potential tasks in the docs on our team chat, but I will put them here as well.

• Decide on the name (during the sprint maybe?)

• Create logo

• Colour theme (mostly decided by dark theme), put in a simple style guide with contrasts.

• Layout of landing page

• Create search field

• Create buttons (need for hover effects in Figma?). Search, import and export. Any more?

• Decide on font, font sizes and font weight all put in a simple style guide (Google fonts the easiest probably?)

• These can be done at the same time

• Wireframe/lo/mid-fi (too big for one person)? (potentially one person for desktop, one for mobile working closely together?)

• Wireframe/layout if upload window

• Final prototype of upload window

• Final prototype of landing page

• Accessibility checks

• Put together the final style guide

Hi Tor. These are all great suggestions for tasks, but I was wondering about the third point concerning the colour palette, and it being a dark theme!

Is this something we all agree on? Its not that I am against it, but I am not sure when this was mentioned in our brief, did I miss something in the meeting last friday? Kind regards, Alex

I'm pasting a link to my simple layout doodle in case it can be of some inspiration.

Maybe you can add it to the shared Figma project ideas board? So we can gather all the layout mockups in one place. Also @mar-ols can you do the same? :)
