Building and adapting UI design patterns from large to small printers
Concept:
The starting point is based on large format printers with many features.
To be able to carry out all those functionalities which that kind of printers are offering, what I did were generating some design patterns that will help us in the future to create the complete user interface, always being consistent with all the applications that we can have.
At the same time, this concept is being transferred to all the touchpoints where the user can interact, and as this way I generate a unified experience.
For all the project, I worked directly with other teams that provided me a lot of information that helped me to understand how the product physically is and which are the mechanical steps that we need take into account and adjust to them in the moment that I'm defining the workflow.
Information architecture:
Focusing on the presentation, I analyze which are the main characteristics. The product should be easy to use and the user need to be able to follow all of the workflow understanding what is happening with every action that is doing.
As this way, what I do is design which should be the end to end experience of each of the features.
From sketches to wireframes
Format:
A determining factor that I need into account when I'm designing, is the amount of formats where the product can be used. On this specific case I worked with the same functionality applied to 4.3, 8 and 12 inches screens.
The approach started from the intermediate size, but always thinking on what would happen on a smaller screen.
Prototypes for user testing:
After creating various proposals that I consider that could fit on different parameters, I create some interactive prototypes through which is possible to analyze the ease of use by the user to perform a task and evaluate if it complies with all the use cases that are being required.
