Minitheory's Daily UI #001 - Notification

For Minitheory's Daily UI Challenge #001 - Notification

Concept: A dating app/game based around carrots. You can propose planting a carrot with someone you're interested in. You talk to each other, through text, photos, audio, etc. to help the carrot grow. It dies when one party gives up or is not putting in enough effort. You can harvest the carrot when they are ready and eventually you can turn it into a irl date where you have a carrot-based meal at a restaurant.

Time taken: ~ 2 hours
Tools: Figma

Learning reflections: As a UX Researcher who is absolutely not trained in design at all, I am rather proud of this piece as this is my first actual UI design "work". I've been thinking of this concept for quite a few months, but keep lacking the skills to visualise it, or so I thought. This UI challenge forced me to do something in spite of my perception of my own skill level. And it turns out that I can indeed put something together. And it doesn't look half bad at all!
