NFT Marketplace App - Moon
*This project was part of the Dribbble UI Design 4-week Certification Course.
My role of an UI Designer gave me the responsibilities of creating the Visual Designs and Prototypes.
Objective
The goal of this project was to create a visual aesthetic for a NFT Marketplace app for a new startup company named, Moon. This company's mission is to revolutionize the NFT Marketplace business with a design-first approach and a deeply curated user experience.
Wireframes
In this case the wireframes were already provided. Since they worked for my design, I didn't really change them.
Moodboards/Research & Visual Exploration
Light & Cool
Dark & Colorful
Final Direction
At first, I really liked the direction of the Light & Cool visual aesthetic. I wanted to go ahead with Version 2. But after conducting a couple user surveys, the majority liked Version 1 instead.
After a little more research, I felt the Dark & Colorful visual aesthetic fit better for a NFT Marketplace app because the color green represented growth & prosperity.
I liked both versions, but decided to keep my theme of Dark & Colorful. So, I choose Version 1 as my final direction.
UI Library
Final Screens & Prototype
Conclusion
Some things I learned while working on this project:
Once you have decided which visual direction you want, start creating your UI Library! That step saved me so much time.
With UI designing you can create many iterations & versions, but having a direction, a client or discipline can keep you out of the "rabbit hole".
I really love designing and have all my life. But I didn't realize how much until now!
Your feedback is welcomed! Thanks!
