As a User Interface Designer

User Interface Design is its compliment, the look and feel, the presentation and interactivity of a product. I am also responsible for creating a cohesive style guide and ensuring that a consistent design language is applied across the product.

As a User Experience Designer

I’ve always been genuinely fascinated by people’s stories. This, along with my passion for smart, bold design, are the reasons why I love what I do—creating unique, compelling brands with meaningful experiences.

Restaurant App

Mobile Food Ordering App

El Buen Gusto is a really busy restaurant, and the app gives customers a really easy way to order, pay, and pick up their food so they can beat the line and beat that lunch rush. For online food ordering to be a success it is important that restaurants create a strong mobile presence. This presence has the scope and power to reach out to a larger audience that would increase awareness about your restaurants among the larger audience base.

PLAN – Design solves a problem. We need to understand the problem

We need to act like a detective in the early stage of a project and find out as much as we can about people, problem, and the project.

  • Meet, talk, observe, and understand users in their environment (User Personas)
  • Analyze requirements to understand and clarify them (User Stores)
  • Define user personas (Use Cases and User Flows)
RESEARCH – Getting Ready to Design; design user experience

I use the material gathered in the first step of the process to find a design worth refining. This stage is not about documenting; it’s about artistic creative explosion. I use Adaptive Path’s multi-page templates to quickly create very generic sketches.

  • Study of competitors’ approaches
  • Research on similar features
  • Design lastest UI/UX trends
DESIGN – Creating Wireframes and Interaction Prototypes

Wireframes is to let everyone gives their idea, exploring options and once everyone agrees on one, I start further design without any changes or confusion.

  • Brainstorming sessions with stakeholders to get their feedback from technical perspective
  • Design UI images
  • Detailed design specs like colors, theme, styles, guidelines
IMPLEMENT – Delivery to developers

Developed UI with complete functionality and experience following the designed theme and style.

I discuss with the developer, on the wireframe. See the technical issues that may appear, and solve together as a team.

EVALUATE – Team validates the product in terms of user flow, experience and identify areas where improvements are needed

"Isabella is a very skilled as a designer who is always mindful of practicality, offering good advise and never allowing the beauty of her designs from compromising their usefulness or effectiveness.
