The challenge
To create a friendly experience for a novel service
We were assigned to design the user interface of the Green Panda ATM.
The objective was to create a pleasant experience, but most importantly, to help users navigate with confidence through a completely novel experience.
What we did
Analysis
Understand the environment
We looked into similar industries (ATMs, POS, Ticket Machines etc.) for best practices and inspiration and aimed for an experience fit for a diverse target user base. The user’s context was also a challenge, with the ATMs being in a noisy crowded supermarket with no privacy, where customers might also be in a hurry.
User journeys
Connect the "dots"
We held workshop sessions with the client to rapidly co-create the initial flows, not just to finetune the user journey, but also to identify unhappy paths and find creative ways to minimize unavoidable frictions.
Wireframes
Design first prototype
We prototyped the solution with wireframes. Our attention at this phase was on functionality, not form.
User testing
Validate the solution
We held a user testing session for the entire experience (user interface and interacting with the ATM) and evaluate our initial assumptions.
UI design
Design the interface
And then, based on the Green Panda brand identity, we created a UI design and animations, making sure it worked well with the limitations of the medium; a big touchscreen inside a funky panda enclosure.
