Urban Design, Visual Design, UX Design
Recognition
This project was awarded the 3rd Prize at the Biennial of Urban Landscape in September 2022. Recognized for the concept design "The RUVI App" under the theme "Design for Urban Uncertainties."
Project Overview
RUVI is an app that helps residents propose and imagine new design visions for their streets and built environment. The project was part of the Biennial of Urban Landscape, under the theme 'Design for Uncertainties.' Inspired by the then-beta stage DALL-E 2 technology, I envisioned this tool for participatory urban design.
Concept
RUVI focuses on how cities and inhabitants could share ideas to shape streets in decision-making processes. It allows users to take a photo of their street and propose changes within the bounds of technical limitations and regulations, fostering creativity within constraints. The app's UI/UX design showcases a user-friendly interface that guides users through the process of proposing changes to their streets.
A user can upload a photo of a street and use prebuilt input boxes like 'green infrastructures, no cars, cycling roads, pedestrian road, urban furniture' to propose changes. A text block allows users to write additional suggestions.
The finished version of the proposed changes, with cars removed and greenery added to the street. This visual representation helps users and stakeholders visualize the potential impact of the proposed changes.
Users can share their proposed changes as a post, view comments from others, and leave their own comments. This feature fosters community engagement and encourages discussion and feedback.
Various proposed changes created by multiple users, providing a comparison with the original street. This feature highlights the diversity of ideas and visions within the community and encourages further discussion and collaboration.
