Project Flow

Personal project -a project management dashboard that helps teams plan, track, and deliver work more effectively without cognitive overload

The goal was to transform fragmented project data into a clear, actionable system that supports both individual contributors and managers in real-world work environments

Problem

Many project management tools overwhelm users with excessive features, dense interfaces, and unclear priorities.
Teams struggle to understand:

  • What needs attention right now

  • What is blocked

  • Where projects are at risk

This leads to missed deadlines, duplicated work, and reduced team confidence.

Objectives

Design a clear, structured dashboard that supports fast decision-making

  • Reduce cognitive load for daily task management

  • Improve visibility of blockers, priorities, and progress

  • Support both team members and managers with the same system

Role
UX/UI designer (end-to-end)

Timeline
3 weeks

Tools
Figma, Stitch, Lovable.dev, Chat GPT Pro

These key insights shaped the core product production:

Research Results
& Findings

I conducted qualitative research through:

  • Informal interviews with professionals using tools like Jira, Asana, and Monday.

  • Competitive analysis of existing project management platforms.


I learned that a successful dashboard should answer three questions instantly: What do I need to do? What’s blocking me? and What needs attention now?

Users don’t want more data — they want clear priorities.

Blockers are often hidden or surfaced too late.

Status updates are time-consuming and repetitive.

Visual hierarchy matters more than feature volume.
Structure the dashboard around decision-driven UX, not feature-driven UX.
Progressive disclosure (show what matters first).
Status clarity over aesthetics.

Part 1 - Discovery & Understanding
I explored the emotional challenges people face when trying to manage their wellbeing. Through interviews, surveys, and competitor analysis, I defined the core problem, identified key behaviours, and created the primary persona and scenarios that shaped the direction of the product.

I led the full end-to-end process — from early discovery to final prototype — integrating psychology, accessibility, and gamification to design an app that feels calm, credible, and motivating.... and this is how I did it!

Part 2 - Design

Using those insights, I developed the information architecture, mapped key flows, and created wireframes centred on empathy, psychology, accessibility, and gentle motivation. From there, I designed high-fidelity screens with a warm, calming visual language that made the experience feel simple and emotionally supportive.

Guided check-in.

Part 3 - Usability testing & Refinement
I validated the product through usability testing. Feedback helped refine the tone, visuals, and interactions — strengthening clarity, reducing friction, and confirming emotional resonance. These improvements increased confidence in the product’s impact and ease of use.

Decision Clarity

This analysis revealed a gap in the market: while existing tools offer powerful functionality, they often sacrifice clarity. My solution prioritises
decision-making and usability, reducing cognitive load while supporting real-world team workflows.

Users
& Context

Primary User Groups:

  • Team Members: Need clarity on tasks, blockers, and deadlines.

  • Team Leads / Managers: Need progress visibility and risk awareness.

Both groups needed different insights from the same data,
without creating separate systems.

Design decisions
& iterations

Early in the process, I explored multiple layout and information hierarchy options mentally and with AI-assisted flow exploration. I evaluated these options against usability heuristics, requirements, scalability needs, and rapid user testing before moving directly into high-fidelity design.

AI assisted
final design

Before finalizing the UI, I used AI to simulate user scenarios, uncover unclear interactions, and validate accessibility and cognitive load. This helped identify friction points early without requiring formal user testing.

Final reflections &
insights

Behind the design

This project reflects a modern UX approach, where AI is used to accelerate execution while UX judgment drives the outcome.

I used AI tools to rapidly generate and iterate high-fidelity dashboard layouts, allowing me to focus on information architecture,
systems thinking, and real-world usability rather than manual wireframing.

Key UX decisions -such as prioritising tasks, surfacing blockers, and reducing cognitive load -were driven by user needs and business context, not the tools themselves.

Working directly in high-fidelity enabled faster validation of hierarchy, clarity, and interaction patterns, aligning with how many
product teams operate today.

This project demonstrates my ability to design complex, data-heavy products efficiently while maintaining strong UX principles and
business relevance.
