Objective
To provide a modern, user-friendly interface for a service that offers image analysis and suggests improved product packaging design. Role: Lead UX/UI Designer
Project Description
TrueInsights is a paid service that analyzes product images, evaluates their packaging design, and provides suggestions for improvements to enhance product visibility and customer engagement. The client aimed to adopt a dark theme to create a modern and sleek look for the platform.
Color Scheme Rationale
The color scheme was crafted to maintain consistency across the platform while adhering to the 60-30-10 rule.
Primary Colors:
We chose a vibrant purple-pink as the primary color. This color was selected to evoke feelings of creativity, imagination, hope, and inspiration—key emotions that align with TrueInsights' mission to empower businesses with innovative and creative solutions for product packaging design. The purple-pink tone also serves to draw attention to interactive elements and key highlights without the harshness or urgency often associated with classic red.
Secondary Colors:
The secondary colors include a dark navy and white, providing a balanced contrast with the primary purple-pink. This contrast helps in distinguishing different sections and enhances readability, especially in the dark theme.
Accent Colors:
Accent colors are used sparingly to draw attention to specific elements without overwhelming the user. Light accent colors help highlight less critical interactive elements, while dark accents maintain the overall aesthetic of the dark theme.
Typography
The typography used across the platform ensures readability and visual hierarchy, with the Manrope font family.
UX Flow
Rationale for UX Flow:
Creating a well-defined UX flow was crucial for this project to ensure a seamless and intuitive user experience.
