Design Process
Empathize
During the crowdfunding we got feedback that it was difficult to order because there were too many product options and the platform had no ways of filtering.
Customer pain points
Customers had difficulties finding out which portraits they could order.
The ordering process was too complex, because they had to input a lot of data, which also took too much time.
There were way too many products from the begin with. Talking about poor UX design choices. We should have adapted to the platform’s restricted options and offered just a handful of of products. Customers were overwhelmed, felt frustrated and left the project.
Methods
I led customer interviews and had lightning talks with the team.
Define
In this stage I understood we had to offer a simplified configuration process that makes ordering easy and would reduce the the amount of order cancellations.

Ideate
We compared a few online stores that offered sustainable clothing to see how they categorized their products. I decided to introduce a filtering system that should considerably reduce the number of different configuration possibilities. We gathered ideas for different filtering categories, talked about their advantages and disadvantages and voted for the final categories.
