In the dynamic world of user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design, I had the incredible opportunity to collaborate with Manolo Restaurant, located in Orlando, FL. My goal was to reinvent the customer experience through an innovative digital menu, incorporating the magic of augmented reality. Leveraging the powerful tools of Adobe XD, I turned this concept into a practical and highly successful reality.
My first step was thorough research. I understood customer needs, restaurant behavior patterns, and the challenges faced by Manolo. This allowed me to establish a solid foundation for the project.
In Adobe XD, I designed an intuitive user interface for the digital menu. Each element was carefully placed to ensure customers could easily navigate the menu, view dish details, and place orders effectively.
The true innovation of this project lay in the integration of augmented reality (AR). Using AR technology, I crafted a unique experience for customers. They could point their devices at menu images and see dishes come to life with visuals and additional information. This not only left a lasting impression but also enhanced customers’ understanding and decision-making.
I conducted rigorous tests with real customers at Manolo Restaurant. Based on their feedback, I refined the interface and functionality to ensure a seamless experience.
The result was a digital menu that transformed how customers interacted with Manolo Restaurant. The introduction of AR was a bold move, but the project’s success was evident through increasing customer satisfaction and boosted sales.
This collaboration with Manolo Restaurant was a testament to the combination of UX/UI design with innovative technologies like augmented reality, capable of creating unforgettable experiences. I am proud to have played a role in this transformation and look forward to taking on more exciting challenges in the future of user experience design.
