The task was to design a wayfinding app for the Samsung Gear S smart watch. My role was to initiate design concepts in the Berlin-based HERE maps office within a small core team. The challenge was to design an interface that was as simple and glanceable as possible, while communicating all the relevant information in very limited space and adhering to the overall HERE brand language and the Tizen architecture.

We worked together in a focused UI/UX team creating key flows for the app such as onboarding, voice control and route finding. After rapid prototyping sprints and user testing sessions I developed a unique looping infographic element that efficiently communicated the different modes of transport in a small space which formed the distinctive visual for the app. It was then rolled out after my engagement by other members of the team. The app was launched across every Gear S device at the time of operation, and received positive feedback for its innovative design and simple visual UI style.
