If the users have the records of optometry in our shops, it will show the latest time. And it is Valid for 12 months. Our suggested time for next optometry is one year later. If the users never do optometry in our shops, this item will not exist.

Member CentreEX EAn account can connect to several users. Users under an account can be shifted by sliding around.

We optimized the informa-tion on optometry sheets, so as to make it simple and easy for users to understand the informa-tion on basis of retaining professionalism of such medical optometry sheets.

Characteristics of glasses are described in form of tags.

Timeline information records interactions between users and our application, including wonderful photos taken during off-line user activities.

Vision memory record serves as an account in which optometry and vision habits of users and their friends are stored. Such an account also contains users’ consumption on on-line platforms or in actual shops. With lots of infor-mation, this account suffers complicated operation interface. I categorized different contents by classifying various operations into different levels in order to simplify the information and smooth the operation.

Location Lists

Detail pages

Price ListLocation lists of chain shops for optometry are taken as a sales mode like group purchase. We offer detailed introductions and relevant illustrations for customers to locate chain shops for optometry.

Detail pages are consistent with the app style, sparing wide margins and using Brighter colors. This makes the interface look clearer.

Our glasses are competitive in terms of the prices. However, these price information look com-plicated. I put the seldom-used information into the floating layer in form of charts which can be accessed on current page through a specific entry.

INTRODUCTION TOBRAND SPIRITTHROUGH VI DESIGN CONCEPTJINGFREE is an on-line shopping platform of fash-ion eyewear. The brand VI needs to spread the youth and vitality communicated by JINGFREE brand, namely boldness and unrestrained imagina-tion. Suitable glasses could improve people’s overall look and make them feel more confident.

We did some research about consumers’ preference about visual identity for a new brand by analysing which kind of identification can be remembered by them. Also, we summarized different views from brand manager, buyer, and activity planner to make our research meet various needs.

Implications of freedom make me think of strong billows, which flow unceas-ingly and vigorously. Based on such image, I designed a group of wave-shape patterns which are char-acterized by visual fluency. The visual-ly-attractive logo of JINGFREE emerged on basis of window shape of different fashion glasses. In order to comply with operation demands of the platform and overall segment of the brand, we mainly select four harmoni-ous bright colors to give full play to vitality of the youth.Fuchsia

Blurred Vision Dim Shadow Astigmatism

During the project, our designers visualize myopic people’s feeling about light, including fuzziness astigmatism, and double image. Delicate patterns refer out real feeling about light.

The JINGFREE shopping platform employs many experienced glasses designers, who could customize fashionable glasses while guaranteeing comfort. VI not only offers new experience, but also highlights its innovative attitude.

Peripheral products relevant to brand visual image encompass calendars and Polaroid card stickers. These products combine elements of glasses and logo with visualized and patterned feeling about the light. As a design-oriented company, JINGFREE often adopted extensive materials which are relevant to glasses during the design process.

As a UI designer at VOSTO , I managed the project of jingfree.com from concep-tion to design. In collabora-tion with VOSTO’s IT depart-ment and product operation team, my role was to ensure the website embraces the marketing needs of an online shop while cooperat-ing with offline activities. I contributed to the develop-ment of the online strategy and was responsible for creating initial sketches, wireframes and designs from start to completion.

We spent lots of time in researching con-sumption habits of Chinese customers. This company hopes to highlight every style of glasses chosen by professional buyers instead of displaying them like a depart-ment does. While designing the homep-age, we sought for innovations on basis of basic demands of customers. In case of finding no familiar operation elements of the newly-launched products, customers will exit the interface. We are seeking com-prise, because some interesting display modes could attract users.

There are many modules on the old JINGFREE website. The old one just want to satisfy all the require-ments with a very ordinary way. Users can not find anything innovative and they find no surprise during browsing the page. We must consider adding creative and proper interaction for the website.

There is an old website of JINGFREE. We did test of eye movement about the old one. The test is for these questions like which content is popular, how much time people would spend on the promotion module and what kind of presentation style of products draw the best results. We found people spent less time focusing on the product image and barely read the text. Images with large size may draw more atten-tion, but how to leace blank for the page is also an important issue.What’s more. this website is selling only glasses. It is important to do custom design for demonstrating the products and their advantages.

We planned to display high-resolution pictures in the purchase homepage, so as to highlight our products and attract visual focus through well-arranged lines and planes. The purchase homepage reserved the menu bar which domestic users are familiar with. With clear classification of menu bar, users won’t get puzzled about the purchase homepage. Homepage

Page 15: Portfolio of nicole

In the rolled-down menu of the homepage, appropriate margins could highlight every single item. With major decoration frames of VI platform, we are able to have customers pay attention to every delicate detail of products. Pictures of wearing effects and 3D views of glasses are well-spaced in terms of arrangement. This could strengthen attractiveness of browsing the homepage. During the hover process, every decoration frame will be shifted to color blocks, which may highlight areas users should play attention to and increase the enjoyment of users during operation.

Hover menu could be displayed in a full screen form. For design of secondary menu, we investigated recognition of 100 users towards categorization of glass-es and their shopping demands, so as to integrate the information to a satisfac-tory menu which complies with customers’ demands.

As a complicated interaction inter-face, the purchase page should display products in a clear and simple way. In order to attract cus-tomers, we need to adopt suitable interaction ways to offer unusual information to customers without crowded spacing and layout. On this page, hover product pictures can be zoomed up. While users click a scale icon on the upper right, a transparent mask which directly shows dimensions of glasses will pop up on the front view. For busi-ness, we took every color as a school. Left colors can be only displayed on the next page, because the homepage fails to present more alternatives.

BRAND STORY

CHOOSE KHUNTORIANS FOR FIRST STEP

In initial stage, we are supposed to choose an influential star among youngsters, and customize glasses which could interact with fans. We try to make image of the brand Top Idols be recognized by fans.

Design inspirations come from fans’ mania for stars. As we all know , each famous star is surrounded by group of fans who spontaneously formed a ring for their stars . We build this brand to do some custom design for spe-cific fans circle . For the first step , a collection of eyewear with all fans loved elements about their stars .

Our Operation ModeOur products are by fans and for fans. By fans: design inspirations come from fans. Fans are fully involved in the design process through on-line and off-line modes. For fans: we will establish special fund for support of stars, so as to feed back to fans. Support of their idol mania could help us spread the culture of fans’ associations for support of stars.

crazy fans

Page 19: Portfolio of nicole

We attended fans’ parties in daily life and cheer for stars together with them in concerts, so as to make out an analysis chart of fans in different conditions and summarize their living hobbies, clothing styles, personalities, and consumption habits etc. They present consumption impulses towards products which are related to stars. However, our products must stimulate customers’ consumption impulses and make a value for money.

Just as football fans watching games, fans automati-cally assemble in space, wearing clothes with same color and yelling same slogans. Such support mode has grown into a culture in Korea. This is a good way to unify emotions of fans. With glasses as carriers, we can enable the mutual emotional recognition of fans.

C O L O R P A L E T T E

The letter “o” in Top Idols is derived from the shape of a crown, represent-ing that the stars deeply favored by fan communities are top-level super-stars. Its modeling is mellow and full as well as lovely, meeting the aesthet-ic demands of major female user groups, which is particularly memorable.

Visual Identity

According to characteristics of fans’ circles, our products are characterized by warm and bright colors which represent styles of lovely women. Lovely women like feminine colors but no those enchanting ones. Therefore, colors of our products should be fresh but also attractive than neutral simple styles.

Combine An Historical Characterlove star

love FANS

The crown-shape design of our logo looks like a classical character in Four Classics of China, namely Monk Tang, the master of Money King. The element of Monk Tang was designed as the cartoon spokes-man in combination with characteristics of our brand. Fans on the micro blog name us as master, just like a leader of fans.

Redesigned image of Monk Tang complies with the logo image and overall visual identity. The logo and the image of Monk Tang could increase the attractiveness and identification of brands as well as extend the popularity of the brand through mutual complementation.

Nothing Better

VK classicThe glasses combined fashion vintage round windows with metal plates. Both materials and colors are based on bold choices. Dark colors of the outer surface gave full consider-ation to applicability of wearing. The inner surface was decorated with rich and gradual-ly-changing colors.

This style was named by name of a song in Khuntoria’s concert. It also adopted the Khuntoria’s classical colors of red and black. According to Korean fashion, the rect-angular windows of sunglasses were designed with dark gray clinches, delicate curved legs.

Kkhuntorian Collection is the first series of Top Idols designed by me. Every step of the series is based on research and analysis of occasions in fans’ daily life, such as concept design, window type, detail consideration, color matching, and material selection. In addition, targeting on Korean stars, the series was added up with Korean fashion elements, such as clinches, and bright colors. With the help of brand manager, I named every style of the series by short stories of fans.

This series design is deeply influ-enced by the traditional Indian visual

forms, from the style of antique headdress, bracelets and toe rings

style, to the dome shape of temple architecture, all elements could be the

original design language gene. Redesign outlines a modernistic

pursuit by simply neat curves and surfaces: the three-dimensional shape

is showing oriental inspiration, and the balance point between fold and

expansions make each piece have an artistic sense. Ultimately creating a

concept modeling shape with strong dramatic and visual tension.

PROJECT 5

Page 28: Portfolio of nicole

Our fixpartner Zhang Yudi has to take along lots of music scores every day. But her violin case only can hold pieces of the scores and has no space for the cellphone and keys. She complained the inconvenience of taking another bag at the same time. Zhang Yudi comes from the north and she is frank. She hoped her existing case would not be damaged.

Considering her needs, we came out the idea of the detachable case for her. This case will be taken down to work individually. It is for sure that the detachable case should match the style of the violin case beacause Zhang did not want it to be stand out. We tried different forms and connection materials for the detachable case considering storing all her stuff reasonably as well as light weight and beautiful outlook.

IDENTIFYING FIXPARTNER’S PROBLEM

EXPLOR POSSIBLE SOLUTION

VELCRO Button

VELCRO is a common material to close things such as pockets and bags. And it was our first solution. Zhang loved the idea of using buttons which came from the violin case to connect the two cases. This is the design that our fixpartner and we together optimized gradually.

ZOO CITYZOO CITYPOSITION : Graphic DesignerRESPONSIBILITY : design visual identity for a construction workshop which should meet business requirements and express individuality at the same time. TIME : 23/MAR/2015-30/MAR/2015

PROJECT 6

Page 30: Portfolio of nicole

A senior student invited me to design an image for his workshop. I examined their design drawings after being permitted. They focused on the harmony between animals and the environment and spent lots of time in researching environ-ment-friendly materials. Their customers are often busy and direct. Therefore, visual image of the workshop should be kept simple and clear to be easily identified at first visual sight. In addition, customers should feel worth trusting in the workshop.

The senior student said he hoped the image can high-light their determination in finding a harmonious balance between construc-tions and animal living envi-ronment.I deeply understand the topological relationship of the inviter. I tried to render a harmonious relationship through positive and nega-tive elements. Brightness and darkness of colors could highlight corresponding relationship between positive and negative elements.
