Case Study
Project Overview
The Snowboard Summit Conditions App was created based on an inspiring idea from watching ‘Aspen X-Games & Snowboarding Event At Olympics’. The snowboarding events that inspired me were Big Air, Slopestyle and Knuckle Huck. I wanted to create an app and a website for a hotel/resort for the snowboarding community. I wanted to be based off snowboard conditions, snow trails and vacation place people could go to.

This is the design process I used for the Snowboard Summit Conditions.
Case Study
Brainstorming Ideas
My brainstorming process for the Snowboard Summit Conditions app was based on researching, looking up information about snowboarding, and watching snowboarding events. I actively explore platforms like Dribbble, Behance, and Pinterest to ignite my creative thinking. I try to think about the users using this app and the target audience I am creating this for. I used the Design Thinking process for this app as well.

Prototyping
The prototyping phase was an ongoing during the design of the user interface for the Snowboard Summit Conditions. I would create a screen and integrating them into a prototyping tool, utilizing the Sketch 3 Mirror App. I would also run scenarios in my head when I was going through the user experience to think what would work and what would not work for users using the application.
