Insight

Modern travelers face a paradox: endless information but limited clarity. Between comparing destinations, managing bookings across multiple platforms, and coordinating with travel companions, the planning process becomes overwhelming rather than exciting. WanderWise was conceived to transform this chaotic experience into something intuitive and purposeful.

Empathize | Competitor Analysis

In the initial phase, our main goal is to gain a comprehensive understanding of the user's issue and to pinpoint any key factors that might impact our decision-making process.

Ideate | Research & Brainstorming

Brainstorm | Our Model

Brainstorm | User Flow

Outcome & Reflection

While the high-fidelity designs and final implementation are still in progress, the WanderWise project demonstrates my approach to human-centered design:

  1. Research-driven decisions grounded in competitive analysis and user needs

  2. Systematic ideation that explores multiple solutions before committing

  3. User-centric flows that prioritize clarity and reduced friction

  4. Iterative wireframing that tests concepts early and often

This project reinforced my belief that great UX design isn't about adding features, but about thoughtfully solving real problems in ways that feel effortless to users.

Next Steps

As WanderWise continues development, upcoming work includes:

  • Usability testing with target users to validate design decisions

  • High-fidelity prototyping to refine visual design and interactions

  • Accessibility audits to ensure inclusive design

  • Iterative refinement based on user feedback
