OUR THINKING, MADE TANGIBLE

Everyday problems.
Considered possibilities.

Two concept studies exploring how clearer interfaces can make everyday work easier. A window into how we think, design, and ask questions.

These are illustrative concepts, not commissioned client projects or available products. All sample interface data is fictional.

01 / SERVICE BOOKING / PRODUCT CONCEPT

Less admin. More room for people.

The everyday problem

A small service business can spend as much time coordinating appointments as delivering them. Availability lives in one place, customer messages in another, and a change can mean several separate conversations.

A possible approach

This concept explores one clear journey from choosing a service to receiving a booking confirmation. The business has a shared view of appointments, while customers can see the information they need before requesting a time.

What the experience could include

  • A service catalogue with durations and clear descriptions
  • Availability organised by date and team member
  • A concise booking summary before confirmation
  • A daily schedule with booking status and customer notes
THE PROPOSED EXPERIENCE
01
Choose a service

Understand the service, duration, and relevant preparation before selecting it.

02
Find a suitable time

Explore available dates and times in a simple calendar view.

03
Review the details

Check the appointment and contact details before confirming the request.

04
Keep the day organised

Give the business a practical overview of the bookings that need attention.

The important design decision

The design priority is reducing uncertainty: what is being booked, when it happens, and what comes next. A real implementation would also need booking rules, cancellation handling, and protection for customer information.

02 / BUSINESS OPERATIONS / INTERFACE CONCEPT

Make the complex feel manageable.

The everyday problem

When daily work is spread across spreadsheets and messages, it can be difficult to see what needs attention. Teams need a useful overview without another complicated system to maintain.

A possible approach

This concept brings tasks, status, and recent activity into one workspace. The initial view is deliberately focused: a small set of meaningful indicators, the work in progress, and the next action for each item.

What the experience could include

  • An overview of open, active, and completed tasks
  • A shared list with owners, priorities, and due dates
  • Filters that narrow the view to relevant work
  • A readable activity history for important changes
THE PROPOSED EXPERIENCE
01
See the bigger picture

Start with a concise overview of the work currently open and in progress.

02
Focus on what matters

Filter the list by owner, status, or priority to find the next useful action.

03
Keep context close

Show the notes and activity that explain why an item needs attention.

04
Review and improve

Use the overview to spot recurring delays and discuss practical changes.

The important design decision

The design priority is making information actionable. Any future build would need agreed definitions for the indicators, permissions for different roles, and careful integration with existing systems.
