User Interface Design

Designing the look of an application and how it is supposed to flow. The goal is to make the user feel engaged quickly and easily. Creating an experience that is enjoyable and will make the user want to return.

Beat Maker

New functionality for an audio mixing program that needed the interface designed. This is an audio and music composing dialog.
I designed the colors, layout and icons following the specifics of how the feature functions.

Refreshing existing designs

A new color scheme mockup I had proposed for implementing into an audio editing program. The goal for this project was to come up with an updated look to the interface following current trends in using dark colors.

Dark UI design

The layout remained mostly the same except for some size adjusting and aligning of panels, buttons, etc. I came up with all the colors shown including the buttons and icons.

New dark theme applied

Here is what the end product looks like. A new look that gives the app a fresh feel without too much change.

Collaborating and final design

The design takes on a slightly different look after discussing with the team and including their ideas. Not much really changes from my original idea. At this time I also design the entire icon set for the program based off the mockup idea.

Dark theme icon set

A closer look at the custom icons I created. Keeping it simple, yet stylish and easily visible.

Applying the dark theme UI

An example of the dark theme mocked up for a drawing program.

New icon set design

This was an alternate set designed specifically for the dark theme use in all the programs and mobile applications.

Results from designs

The new colors and edited layouts were accepted not only by everyone on the team, but also saw an increase in sales. Every one of the products got a dark theme version of the UI. Projects like these are enjoyable and a great learning experience on the technical side of file formats and file space in an image.
