GPS INTERFACE FOR MINI COOPER
 

Design exercises around basic form, color and typography leading to interface design of a GPS. The Interaction class chose their own brands and I wanted to explore that graphical language of the MINI COOPER.

Week 1: Graphic design exercises with Christian Altmann from Propeller

Week 2: User reviews of the Nokia GPS, flowcharts and analysis.

Week3/4: Flash animation of GPS device for brand of choice.

WORKSHOP WITH PROPELLER
   

The workshop comprised of a set of exercises focusing around the elements dot, line and surface.

The second part consisted on typography, typographic hierarchies, layouting skills, and strengthening the semantics of typa and its value to communicate.

The synthesis of the workshop comprised of making an animation of the graphic form we created. A sample can be seen here.

USER ANALYSIS OF NOKIA N80 GPS
   

When we tried out the Nokia n80 we quickly found out that there was some redundancy in the menu system. Graphics were inconsistent thorughout, with little less than the blue color tying the language together.

DESIGN FOR PRINT PROPOSALS
   

A suggested AD composition for the promotion of a GPS with a Mini Cooper style.

I was interested in creating a pictogram library around some classic symbols that are part of our daily life.

FINAL INTERFACE FOR THE GPS
   

Final flash scenario around how the user would interact with the GPS. Click the text to activate the flash file.

I have worked with sound design and integrated somewhat realistic sounds around the context of use.
