About

Since the start of covid, my family and I have come together to assist my aging grandparents with everyday needs. Because my grandparents have limited mobility and my home is closest in proximity to theirs, my responsibility often includes transportation to frequent destinations for weekly essentials and appointments.

​

Due to the limited mobility of seniors, additional care is required for safe taxi-hailing and transportation. I designed Cuir as an easy and intuitive mobile solution for senior citizens to hire a taxi service that accommodates their necessary transportation needs.

the problem​

The users are senior citizens and individuals with limited physical mobility whom require 

urban city residents and graduates of fashion design universities who often freelance as productions tailors in fashion, media production, or theater industries. Due to the limited number of full-time positions available to this user group, tailors often supplement their income with private clients from the general public seeking tailoring services including garment repairs, alterations, and customizations.

Existing methods for sourcing clients by professional tailors include word-of-mouth referrals, Craigslist posting, or Facebook advertising which have all proven ineffective and unreliable. Currently, no working solution exists that streamlines the customer relationship experience between professional tailors and their clients.  

Tailors who use this app need to be able to advertise their services with a bio and portfolio, manage service requests, clearly communicate with clients, and accept on-time electronic payments. I aim to understand whom the users are by researching their problems.

the solution​

A simple and easy way for professional tailors to locate customers, negotiate service costs, make and receive clear communication from clients, and schedule service bookings.

the research process ​

design thinking

In the initial research state, it was important to define clearly, the challenges ahead, the potential users, and what we wanted to accomplish with the design.

To narrow down the best solutions and deliver a creative and simple solution to this problem, I used Design Thinking; a process based on user-centered solutions that are divided into 5 steps: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test.
