Art Disco
A local art discovery app
Problem
The problem is a lack of discoverability of local artist and their work, causing frustration for both the viewer of art as well as the artist.
Objective
With all of this in mind, we created a UX design for a mobile phone that enables viewers and artists to discover local art easily. We support this mission by having the interface clean & simple, tasks supporting discovery, and highlighting local artists.
