a Cozy Corner for Young Listeners
I was asked to design an accessible platform for kids and families. The goal was to make it easy for users to find age-appropriate audiobooks.
The Challenge
Designing for children presented a unique challenge, requiring a departure from my typical design sensibilities to create an interface that would resonate with the younger audience. The main challenge was to make the design appealing yet straightforward for kids, while not being too cluttered.
Parental Guidance
Though initially, the plan included user testing with children, this idea was eventually set aside. Instead, we pivoted to gathering feedback from parents to make sure the platform hit the right notes with its intended audience.
A Canvas for Kid-Friendly Exploration
While the platform is still in the pre-launch phase, the client was delighted with the final design. The interface is colorful yet not overwhelming, setting the stage for an engaging experience for both children and their families in their quest for the perfect audiobook.
