This was a university group project, where we had to create a
configurator interface for a special jacket. It was made using
Figma and Blender. The interface is fully interactable and the
3D model of the jacket can be viewed from different angles.
You can try out the Figma Prototype here:
Overview of design decisions:
Color:
The interface appears clean and high-quality due to the light
color tones. To create contrast between individual elements, a
pale blue tone reminiscent of a nautical theme has been used.
Additionally, a stronger blue tone has been applied to
highlight selected objects and important elements.
Layout:
The configurator consists of two parts: the upper half, where
a rotatable preview of the jacket is always visible, and the
lower half, where options can be selected. This ensures a
clear view of how the jacket looks with the current options.
UX:
The configurator has been optimized for smartphones. The
interface is kept minimalist, and all buttons are adapted for
easy finger selection without accidental clicks. To
efficiently use the smaller screen, customization options are
divided into multiple pages, switchable with buttons,
providing a linear and clear user experience. A progress bar
at the bottom indicates the user's position, and a preview
image indicator shows there is a second view. At the end, the
user receives a clear summary of selected options and the
final price. From here, users can go back to make further
adjustments.
Explanation of Various Elements:
- For size selection, buttons were used to display all options
at a glance since minimal information needs to be
conveyed.
- Color selection is also done through buttons, displaying the
color directly on the button, eliminating the need for
additional
descriptions.
- For hood selection, where more text is required, these
options are consolidated in a dropdown menu to save space.
- Toggleable options have a selectable box next to the product
description, allowing users to toggle options on or off
with a simple tap.
