Prospera - Investment dashboard design for you
This dashboard was created on a personal situation where I felt the need to have a one-stop overview of all my investments with the rise and surge of IPOs and public investment options. As a newbie investments can get so complicated!
The problem statement is - To create an overview of all my investments in one place where I can track what I have invested in, how much, and on what platforms do I have my investor details.
User Research and Understanding
User Personas: I tried to solve my blockers when it comes to an all-in-one place for my personal investments. It is difficult to have one place with all of my investment details.
User Goals: To identify best ways to track my favourites or highly-invested stocks/companies/IPOs etc. To have access to my funds and National Investor Number (NIN), and to know the exact count & type of investments I have made.
Information Architecture
Content Organization: Structure the dashboard's content hierarchy logically, grouping related information.
Data Visualization: To present complex financial data in an easy-to-understand format - Investment type + invested funds = profit/loss.
UI Design
Visual Design: Create a sleek and modern interface without creating a sensory overload.
Color Scheme: Choose a sophisticated color palette -
001F3F - Navy blue & FFC107 - Golden yellow (The navy blue and golden yellow colors create a professional and vibrant investment dashboard interface.)
Typography: Select legible and modern fonts such as DM Sans
Iconography: Utilize outlined minimalist set of icons that is universally understood by users.
Whitespace: Incorporate ample whitespace between elements to enhance visual hierarchy, improve readability, and create a sense of elegance and sophistication.
It was a fun mind-challenging exercise, exploring various case studies, creating the branding behind Prospera, playing with graphics & auto-layout on Figma, and getting inspired from the community.
I look forward to experimenting more! :)
