Early UI/UX Journey (2014-16)
UI/UX Design. Usability testing. UX Research. Wireframing.
Demola Slovenia: Winter 2014 - Think Healthy (November 2014 - March 2015)
Role: Research, Survey execution, UI/UX Design
Team: 3 Designers, 1 Medicine student
Team: 3 Designers, 1 Medicine student
Demola is a student competition where teams develop product ideas in cooperation with partner companies. Our project revolved around an end-user application which would modernize the public health sector.
The project began with a research of similar projects implemented by other countries and prominent private-sector companies. Valuable insights provided by our partner company, Marand, played a significant role during this phase. After that, efforts were directed toward conducting a comprehensive survey to understand people's experiences and frustrations with the public health sector. We shaped our personas and user journeys based on the insights gathered.
Next, we entered the screen design phase of the project. Inspiration was drawn from established examples, with Apple's Health app and Google's early Material Design guidelines serving as basic references for the first digital drafts.
After numerous iterations and feedback loops with our mentors and the partner company the final app designs were formed.
The efforts of our team and the thorough process that lead to the final result was recognized by the competition panel and our team was awarded 1st place.
OTS 2015 Conference
(June 2015)
(June 2015)
Role: UI/UX Design
Team: Solo project
OTS is a modern information technology and services conference organized at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
The goal of the project was to create and engaging native mobile application which would serve as an all-in-one guide and handbook to the conference. This included a dynamic home feed with upcoming events, a day-by-day schedule a location guide and an archive of participating authors and their articles.

EXIAS Medical - Electrolyte Analyzer UI
(November 2015 - April 2016)
(November 2015 - April 2016)
Role: Wireframing, Prototyping, Usability Testing & Analysis, UI/UX Design
Mentor: FH-Prof. DI Dr. Konrad Baumann

Core team: Pal Kosi, Nataša Rajh
Extended team: E-Health, Interaction Design and Industrial Design Students
EXIAS Medical was founded in 2014 and specializes in the development, manufacturing and sales of in-vitro-diagnostic analyzers in the point-of-care and laboratory field.
In 2015 EXIAS formed a partnership with FH Joanneum Graz with the goal of forming the initial concepts for the User Interface of their newly developed electrolyte analyzer prototype.
An extensive research and brainstorming phase marked the beginning of the project. Under the guidance of the mentor and key contact persons from EXIAS the initial sketches and wireframes of the user interface were made.
An extensive research and brainstorming phase marked the beginning of the project. Under the guidance of the mentor and key contact persons from EXIAS the initial sketches and wireframes of the user interface were made.
Sticking to a strict schedule, the initial wireframes were quickly converted into the first versions of the high fidelity digital screens.
The screen design evolved over time through the process of trial and error, feedback and collaborative workshops.
With the basic design settled upon, additional screens were added to cover more complex user journeys.
At this point the full focus shifted into usability testing preparation.
This included crafting the specific scenarios for the users to complete, setting up interactive clickable prototypes, creating a makeshift paper prototype with an iPad attached to it, preparing the moderation speech and gathering all the required props.

A pilot usability testing session was executed with close friends and family of different age ranges and professional experience, the analysis of which resulted in a 15 page report with suggestions of improvement for the screen design, the testing process itself and the overall user experience.
With additional tweaks to the process completed and the beautiful prototypes from our Industrial Design colleagues delivered, everything was ready for the main testing sessions with pharmaceutical and medical industry professionals.
Along with the general usability and user experience, some of the specific variables we tested for were: ease of handling the prototypes, portrait vs landscape orientations, understandability of flows, clarity of illustrations and the durations of acceptable waiting times while analyzing the parameters.
After thorough analysis of hours of audio and video material, a 34 page report was generated with an overview of different patterns that emerged from the testing. The report included suggestions for improvement of the prototypes themselves, the flows, illustrations, UX copy and animations. The suggestions were backed with videos, graphs and tables which explained the pain points that emerged.
The final output of the project was a set of updated screens which incorporated the main lessons learned from the usability testing sessions.

Founded in 1992, during the introduction of organic waste recycling in Styria, Komptech is a leading technology for mechanical and biological waste recycling and the processing of wood based biomass.
In 2016 Komptech partnered with FH Joanneum Graz for a conceptual phase of a modern smartphone based fleet management tool.
After extensive competition analysis and some collaborative brainstorming workshops with the stakeholders, detailed conceptual wireframes were created.
