OfficeLuv is a B2B office management platform that helps office managers run and maintain the office, from supplies to budgeting analytics to managing the Office Support team, OfficeLuv is an all-in-platform. I was the Lead Designer from 2016-2018 and helped design, build, and launch the first version of the product.
On Your Mark, Get Set...
Design Leadership
The main challenge we faced was the timeline. We had a three-month window to design and build a product showing signs of use by real-world users. All teams, from engineering to design, started work simultaneously. This necessitated communication, adaptability, and understanding to ensure we were in sync.
Using Resources Efficiently
User Research • Design Sprints
We used design sprints involving all stakeholders, as well as a few clients allowed us to unlock a multiple perspective's operational knowledge. with the engineering and product team involved in these, it was an efficient way to let everybody included see the entire board, and contribute their knowledge.
Supply Catalog User Interface
Ux • UI • Visual Design
Another time-saving decision was to use familiar design patterns. There was nothing to be gained by redesigning a online shopping experience for the sake of being clever.
Office Supply Management
UX • UI • Visual Design
Each office support team had their own way of handling supply management. The similarities among them all were that Office Managers needed to monitor supply levels and approve purchases from their desks. Office Attendants needed to easily set levels from their phones as they walked the floor and took inventory.
Supply Item Details
UX • UI • Visual Design
Each item in the OfficeLuv Catalog could be a one-time purchase, or added to an office's list of inventory. To work quickly, we kept the item management features within the existing item details modal.
Design For The User
UX • UI • Visual Design
Using responsive design, I laid out the same functionality to emphasize setting supply levels and allow for them to be easily set with the right hand.
Responsive Design
UX • UI • Visual Design
The device type changed the form factor on both a high-level page layout design and navigation, as well as who each screen was designed for. Mobile devices were almost exclusively used by Office Attendants while updating supplies on the floor, while Office Managers were seated at desktops reviewing location updates at once.
