SocialGrapes Wine View, Wireframe and Render Comparison
Here's a wireframe and render comparison of a wine's detail view for the now-defunct SocialGrapes iOS mobile app. SocialGrapes was a wine-based social network where users can check in the wines they drink and get recommendations based on their check-ins.
At the time of the app's design, especially for this view, I was heavily inspired by Foursquare and Gowalla.
Something I pushed for, and hinted in the wireframe, is the concept of wine flights as a simple badge-based game mechanic. Not only was it designed to motivate players to keep checking in wines, but the flights themselves would have been designed like wine lessons.
