Processed
A website designed in response to problems experienced by graduating Melbourne design students transitioning into professional practice identified in user research.
Identified Problems
Students need more contextual technical skills and familiarity with real-world industry practices and expectations. To fill in these gaps in knowledge, they will often search online for guidance but need help finding relevant and detailed information and feel inadequate when viewing final professional project outcomes shared online. As a result, students can find themselves overwhelmed and insecure, lacking access to design communities of mutual benefit to enter professional practice confidently and with a sense of belonging.
The direction I came up with is a website called Processed: A platform to share and learn from each other's design process, encouraging transparent reflection by sharing the process behind design projects all in one place. Through this platform, students are less daunted by their transition because they are exposed to industry expectations and connect with real design work to develop their skills with intention.
