Overview

This project challenged me and my team to design and develop an auction-based website under a tight deadline as part of a student group assignment. Taking on the roles of both UX/UI Designer and Front-End Developer, I worked to create a platform that not only functioned smoothly but also provided an engaging and intuitive experience for the users. The focus was on efficiency and usability, ensuring that users could navigate the bidding process with ease. By applying core UX/UI principles and maintaining a clear visual design, we were able to deliver a fully functional, user-friendly auction website within the time constraints.

Define the problem


  • Driving Traffic (Auction based websites are not in demand, but one that solely focuses on reselling of tools from professionals to amateurs or -smaller companies is a great USP. The goal will be to drive traffic to our clients website instead of competitors)

  • Appealing Design (Creating user-centered design that’s appealing to the target audience)

  • Best Practices (How are other similar competitors building their websites and what can we do better)
