So it happened, that my UX design studies at Career Foundry coincided with the first truly global pandemic, that forced a big part of the population to work from home.

Since the main task of a UX designer is to empathize with people and explore their problems, it felt natural to choose a challenge that everyone around me was going through.

The challenge of maintaining mental health while adapting to a new reality of home office.

This 5-month learning experience to me steps by step throughout the whole design process, making me responsible for all the deliverables, from competitive analyses to user research, from information architecture to wireframing, from prototyping to usability testing, until delivering a prototype of a responsive web application.

Throughout this design journey, the research and insight generation tasks were the ones that most resonated with me. Not only because they appealed to my natural curiosity but also because I saw a close connection to my concept creation skills. Most of all I saw how the research tools and methods directly impacted the quality of my creative output.
