Zhao Xue Portfolio


After graduated with a bachelor degree in Industrial Design, I worked on visual and UX design for more than 2 years, in which I picked up much experience in design. I recognized that design is not simple accumulation of functions, instead, it integrates user behavior and psychology with user experience throughout the design process. I love to focus on user needs and behavior, pay attention to communicating with user and learn more about the related knowledge. The accumulation of projects gave me an in-depth understanding that interaction design is not a simple presentation of visual interface and actions - it solves the problems of communication between people and things, which makes the products effective, easy-to-use and pleasant.

Some Graphic Design


5C Intelligent Community Terminal In 2012, I was as the main designer and collaborated with team members to design the interactive interface of community intelligent terminals for FAB Enterprise Group. In the period, I was responsible for the interaction design and the control over visual works. Besides, I communicated directly with the clients and successful completed the project jointly with the effort of my team members. Making user experience penetrate intro the entire design process not only solved problems, but also brought new design concepts to FAB.

User Research

Consumption Characteristics

Target users are from 18 to 35. Allowing for the sensitivity of teenagers for interactive products and those in forties who work in high-tech companies, target users will upsize in the scope of age. Based on serving the public in communities, this program focuses on the housing community and divides the user groups according to age and activity scope. Different users pay attentions to different products functions. Meanwhile, the products they are using are also of different functions. Therefore, the design should be follow the properties of different users and their needs, which will contribute to product’s usability. We get knowledge of users’ characters and needs by interviews and establish four personas.

Trendsetter

Striver

Most of them haven’t worked for a long period or even have no job, but their power of consumption is good and they are fond of trend-setting products. What they value most is brand and price ranks the second when they shopping. Awarding points and discount can enable them to make unreasonable consumptions.

Most of them belong to the stay-at-home type of people, who are not willing to shopping in the mall even it is nearby. For them, online shopping is a good choice. Daily special price and flash sale favor them very much and those cheap and popular goods interest them mostly.

Achiever

Homemaker

As the pillar of the society, they have certain economic strength and pursue a high-quality life. They only buy high-quality and high-price commodities but make reasonable consumptions.

They favor long-lived commodities that have high quality and cheap price, like discount merchandises and enjoys stocking up goods. They only pay attention to the necessities of life and make no impulse consumptions to non-necessities.

Import Scenario Analysis Before the design of import interface, we make it clear as for what methods the users will adopt to understand and use the terminal: attracted by the machine, re-use, publicity or others’ introduction.

As for the import scenario, we mainly take into account sensory experience of users such as visual and auditory feelings, achieving the effect of guiding users to use by catering to their aesthetic appreciation. Subject to these factors, the users will be able to successfully enter the standby interface, to achieve our purpose of import.

Emotion/ Memory

Experience

Standby Page UX For the standby page, we have clearly stated its function and expression mode, and discovered problems that may be encountered by the users in the standby page and the corresponding solutions by interaction model and user needs analysis.

Fu lfil

In allusion to these four import methods, we have analyzed the measures that can be taken by each method. For instance, for the method of attraction, we have made analysis of the factors which can attract users, such as appearance, voice, logo, screen and information, studying the problems that result from these factors and putting forward solutions based on the interaction model.

Standby Page

We write down stakeholders and user needs, and place paper as terminal interface in different regions before the design of page layout. The integration of functions and information is considered to better adapt to paper sizes.

Through analysis, the major function of lock screen is summarized as attracting users and displaying functions. In the design procedure, dynamic effect is also considered. Meanwhile, some real time information such as time and weather information as well as modules for tips are added.

Home Page Homepage is the main page, including seven function modules. Due to the differences in user groups and using frequencies, the modules have different positions and sizes. In the design procedure, a host of studies of the size, distances in between, integrated relations, display form and other aspects are conducted to increase the module resolution and to bring joyful experience for users.

Basic Information

It is the key point of our design to make modules of different functions integrated with the overall style on the premise of maintaining their own features. Property Information function is the key point of the program. We are hoping that we can distinguish the importance of each function according to the different sizes. Latest information will be displayed on the module of the first page.

Mood Board Before the mood board is created, we did brainstorming based on explicit interface design principles (affinity, simplify, extensibility, legibility), classifying all derivative keywords into vision, mentality and physical expression, and finding corresponding pictures to exemplify the abstract words from the perspective of users and apply them in visual design.

Affinity Color

Extensibility Shape

- Soft, warm, no stimulation

- Elastic, soft and round

- Mostly the same color, low saturation

- Irregular shape with tension-free or regular shape with small tension is preferred Resizing shapes and changing the space between them can reduce stiff feeling.

- The overall color should be harmonious and unified

Material - Tend to be warm, natural and downy Like scarf, cake, fluffy hat, fabric sofa, carpet, towel, etc. It can be appropriate to add these materials if necessary, but do not overuse them in the interface.

Color - Should have the characteristics of serialization - The same saturation - Easy to add a new color

- Can add quasi materialized design Using the shape of real object in life, that can close distance between users and product.

Color

- Mostly light or solid color High purity color gives a strong visual impact, that can only be used in local area to attract users. - Use as few color categories as possible on the same interface

- Convex-concave Through the edge connections to improve extensibility and bring modules into close association. Such as puzzle, tetris, gear, building blocks, etc. It can add other functional modules at the later stage without destroying unity.

Material - Flat, wide, broad and extensive Do not necessarily need to add concrete material for the interface. Minimize the use of material and details expression. Solid color, no gradient, no shadow and no high optical is perferred. Use the same material like wood, paper, metal wire drawing, that can make the interface more extended.

Legibility

Simplify

- Fresh, natural, vitality, and do not make public

Shape - A series of the same shapes

Shape - Basic geometries Such as streamline, circle, square rectangle, line, etc - Must be united Use as few shape elements as possible on the same interface. The arrangement of shapes should be unified.

Material - Pure, clear, natural Minimize the use of material and details expression. Solid color, no gradient, no shadow and no high optical is perferred. Do not use the disordered materials. Use the same or similar elements can make the interface more simplified, and that will bring a good user experience.

Color - Tricolor or strong contrast colors The color has the difference in hue, lightness, purity. - Has an explicitly orientated

Shape - Mostly representative, concise, recognizable symbols Select the unique shapes or details and refine the characteristics to generate module or icon.

Material - Can be used as a light source, silky smooth surface - Can add quasi materialized design Using the material of real object in life appropriately, that can make interface easy to identify.

Manipulate the horizontal and vertical spacing between shapes.

Scheme 1 Round shape represents the reunion, the success, symbolizing the expectations of the people for a better life. The round design elements and page layout is extracted from galaxies in the universe, showing the symbol of nature and harmony, and indicating that the community service commits to provide a better living environment for residents. What is more, the round shape makes the interface more user friendly.

NOBLE

EFFICIENT

At the early stage of the project, the client needed to design a VIP card which could be used both for recording membership information for identity authentication, and for collection and giving as presents. The VIP card should manifest the distinguished identity of the members and at the same time inherit the image of the brand. After a series of research and digging deeper into the client's requirement, I have found that the essential requirement was to convey the connotation of the product, that is, the client wanted to emphasize on the product's being the symbol of identity and the brand, instead of the form of the product.

Bank cards, membership cards and consumer cards are required to be carried and shown during settlement.

Common market membership cards are mostly plastic or metal with different printing techniques and patterns, difficult to distinguish their grades.

Traditional membership card packaging is hard to highlight the noble status of enterprise services and holders.

Results As a symbol of service and quality, Deer Jet VIP Card is not used for data transmission, no need to carry it around. It does not have to be designed in a traditional card type. 21

Through a research on the packaging boxes of high-end products in the market, a conclusion is reached concerning the materials with high usage rate: metal, wood, plastic, paper, fabric, leather. Apart from single material, some packages also adopt the design of multiple materials, for instance, paper and fabric, wood and leather etc., which not only serves as the finishing touch, but also helps to save materials and cut costs. The lining of the packaging boxes is mainly velvet or sponge, which acts as the buffer. The research result is also categorized based on the style of packaging and common opening methods are also summarized in the paper.

It is a social networking media based on the form of calendar, with which users can make arrangements on their time and agenda, record moment of life at any time, share fun in lives and be informed about their friends’ schedule and lives. This project is aiming at developing the Lifeweeker App of ipad version.

39


In the project, I was responsible for the visual design of the product. Considering that the product was a social networking platform based on schedule management, I chose the schedule book people use every day as a visual image, restored real scenarios in the interface, reduced the usage difficulty and eliminate users’ psychological barriers to add intimacy. In dealing with colors and details, I tried various options and finally selected a simple pure color manifestation to weaken the differences among user groups.

Combining with product positioning, the colors of brand identity are chosen as the main color. Employment of sundry colors is avoided, following the principle of simplicity for User Experience. Thus users can easily get access to proper operation. Due to the broad scope of user groups, that can also weak the differences among user groups.

日记

为了纪念“滚石”乐队在今年5月中再版发行唱 片,音乐杂志新期再次将这支传奇的乐队搬上了封 面。1971年“滚石”乐队因为逃避英国政府查税而 呆在法国南部的一栋豪宅,在女人、大麻、音乐的混 合派对中,制作了这张伟大的唱片。和滚石乐队颇有 渊源的作家借着唱片再版的机会,再次和滚石的成 员回忆起那段嬉皮岁月。为了纪念乐队在今年5月中 再版发行唱片,音乐杂志新期再次将这支传奇的乐队 搬上了封面。

In the process of transforming wireframe into visual presentation, I made some adjustments. In order to harmonize and unify the overall style, the rectangular control was changed into rounded rectangle while dividing lines were added for some controls to render each functional area of the interface distinct. Appropriately adjusting the size of the interface elements makes the product easier to use.
