For the initial user research, I talked to the customer service team and collected all the recent feedback and problems that were questioned by our customers about the swatch page to understand the current problems. During the synthesis phase, I used affinity mapping to analyze pain points and define the priorities. Then, I generated workflows to understand where the process that users were having trouble with. As a result, I created Lo-Fi and Hi-Fi Prototypes. After publishing the new design online, I will follow up with the customer service team and confirm the redesign solves the pain points.

Research and Collecting Feedback

I created several questions and asked marketing teams to send out this survey through emails with promotions.

The goal is to create a more intuitive, visually appealing, and user-friendly interface that provides a seamless experience across all devices.

I created several questions and asked marketing teams to send out this survey through emails with promotions.

  1. Do you know we provide a free swatch service?

  2. What other information would you like to see on the swatch page?

  3. What could we do to make this site more useful?

Affinity Map

The findings from my research were organized on an affinity map to better understand the shopping journey from the homepage to the product page and then the swatch page; it helps to determine priorities moving forward in the process. With this project's short timeline, it was important for me to understand what I should focus on to maximize the website's benefit.

Based on the Study, here are the 3 problems I decided to focus on:

  1. Difficult to find the swatch page

  2. Difficult to know detailed information about fabrics, such as “ is this fabric pet friendly?”

  3. Difficult to see the texture on small swatch images

  1. Communication: Since this project was carried out during the pandemic, when remote work processes were yet to mature, communication issues and misunderstandings were common. Therefore, I used before-and-after design comparisons to help me showcase and explain the changes.​​​​​​​

  1. Self-management: Due to the change in the work environment, more self-management and motivation can help improve work completion. For example, I wanted to replace online meetings with written documentation. Therefore, I listed the questions I wanted to gather feedback on and used surveys to increase work efficiency while avoiding misunderstandings. This experience made me realize the importance of developing my own working methods.
