PROJECT OVERVIEW

Get Safe is a smart collective fire alarm system where the board always has a full overview of the status of fire safety in the housing association. Get Safe is also an individual burglar alarm, which each resident activates in their apartment. The device is controlled with an included application.

The project  goals were to uncover pain points in the application and portal related to Get Safe and potential solutions related to the various problem areas. Based on the analysis work, GET wanted a recommendation for further progress of the product.

THE CHALLENGE

This research project was quite interesting because the results had a lot of weight in terms of a possible large acquisition. As the lead researcher I wanted an overview of previous gathered knowledge as the project had been going on for a while. The first analysis conducted was a competitor analysis to look into what possible competition GET Safe would have going from a relative small business commitment to a larger project.

In addition to the research role, I was performing user interviews and conducting user testing as the product was tested and iterated upon along the research phase. Deep dive interviews and focus groups were utilised to get a better understanding of what people thought of the product.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Ruter is a public transport company that I’ve worked on multiple projects with. Their brand reach is massive within the Oslo area which makes them a very fun client to work with. The broad scope of the different projects also gave me new challenges to overcome and grow as a versatile designer.

I’ve been a part of Ruter and scoping their vision for the future. I’ve used my skills in both interaction design and front-end to develop various concepts, prototypes and solutions. Throughout the projects I’ve been in constant contact with users through interviews, user testing and doing various types of analysis. This way the development teams has always been in line with customer needs. My expertise and experience through several projects has helped to ensure that Ruter was constantly on the path of reaching the goal of becoming a world-class seamless customer experience.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Trumf is NorgesGruppens benefits program. As a Trumf member, customers save bonuses every time they shop at one of Trumf’s partners. The bonus is collected in a member account and the customer can choose how they want to use the bonus.

As a long term partner, Making Waves works closely with Trump to develop new digital services and benefits, as well as manage the digital contact points.

THE CHALLENGE

For this project I was responsible for graphic and interaction design for their primary site, Trumf.no as well as viaTrumf. I worked closely with Trumf and their team to map user needs and business opportunities and then take this into new functionality and further development and optimization of existing functions.

In addition, I was tasked with front-end styling for some of the components as I could help the team with the utilisation of my frontend skills.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

For DNB (Den Norske Bank) Making Waves was approached to help out with building a new flow for how enterprise customers manage their loans. The customer approached us with the need for how to increase credit for corporate customers and facilitate upscaling so that the solution is sustainable for new products and loan types.b

The goal was an overall better customer experience with increased self-service and reduced lead times as primary business goals.

THE CHALLENGE

A project of any size in a large corporation can be challenging, and with a large team and several other consultancy agencies involved the process was an interesting challenge. My role as an interaction designer was first to help the customer understand how the design process works, with everything from iterations to constant user testing to verify our various hypothesis.

We developed multiple concepts and used customer interviews to verify which leads to follow from the start. Throughout the project we built several prototypes and together with interviews, we conducted user testing sessions to bring the prototypes forward. Using an agile approach we ended up with a MVP at launch that focused on the users needs and wants, but at the same time meeting the customers business requirements.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Back to start is a company with a training concept called “BasisBall”. This concept is conveyed through their website and presented in two different ways. The first is for registered users (“trainers”) and requires an account to access. This type of account is granted to personal trainers at fitness centres that have joined the program. Through the account they can subscribe to 3 different types of programs, which will allow them to teach the respective program at their fitness centre.

Casual users are given a different approach to the concept. By attending courses of various levels of difficulty, they train with Back to Starts staff of certified BasisBall trainers and can subscribe to the corresponding program they are enrolled in.

By subscribing, both user groups get access to a third party service that serves as a “trainer portal”. The service is called BRIK that will let users watch videos of the training programs online as well as download the corresponding music.

THE CHALLENGE

Research conducted indicated that users find it confusing to navigate and use the website to locate information. In addition, the link between the website and the third party portal is not clear. As part of the upgrade the client also wanted to implement an eCommerce shop with a more automated flow.
