Having a strong simplistic but modern user interface was important to our users, this is because they wanted to experience an app which was accessible and valuable to the urban growing community. Concentrating on the colour scheme and branding throughout this project has improved the user experience of the app. By sticking to the urban growing theme has allowed all of the key information easy to read. Below are some solutions in the app which we have designed to solve complex problems urban growers are facing in their area.
Users have the option to gift or buy a subscription box tailored to their needs. If they’re wanting to be a beginner then they can select specific seeds and tools to get them started. Experiences users are also able to customise their box to match their skillset and receive boxes easy month when needed. We thought the subscription box would be a flexible and credible way for urban growers to feel comfortable and manage the speed they want to learn gardening.
