This was a group project in our interaction design studio. As a group we were presented with a design brief and we were inspired to focus on designing an experience focused on family recipes. We conducted mixed methods research to learn more about our users, created paper prototypes and evaluated them. Our final deliverable included a hi-fi prototype and video demonstrating how our product could exist in the real world.
