Design Takes Shape: Our First Application Wireframes


After all the Lego builds, sketch sprints, and intense brainstorming sessions — we finally brought our ideas to (digital) life! Meet our first-ever wireframes: the early blueprint of the BookSwap app that transforms student needs into scrollable screens.

These wireframes were born from the voted Crazy 8's sketches, carefully chosen for their functionality, clarity, and student-first vibe. Each screen was designed using Figma, and trust us — nothing beats seeing our napkin-sketch dreams glow up into real interfaces.

What are the Problem Here?

 THE TEXTBOOK STRUGGLE IS REAL ! Buying textbooks every semester is one of the biggest headaches for students, not only are they expensive, but finding second-hand options often feels like searching for a needle in a haystack. While new students scramble to find affordable books, senior students are left with stacks of used textbooks they no longer need, with no easy way to pass them on. This mismatch creates a real gap: first-years face financial pressure, while seniors miss the chance to recoup some of their costs. Without a simple, centralized platform to connect the two, valuable books go unused, and students end up spending more than they need to. It’s an ongoing cycle of wasted money, time, and resources, and we think it’s time to change that.

Inside a Student’s Mind: The Book Swap Experience

  EMPATHY MAP This image shows an empathy map for users of a book swap or second-hand textbook marketplace, likely for UUM students. An empathy map is a visualization tool used in design thinking to gain deeper insight into users by exploring different aspects of their experience. Core Components of the Empathy Map Central Focus The map places the user (represented by a silhouette) at the center, with six key sections radiating outward to capture different aspects of the user experience. THINK Section (Left, Light Green) Key thoughts : "Are the books in good condition?" "Can I trust this seller/buyer?" "Why buy new if I can get it cheaper second-hand?" "I want to save money on textbooks and still get good quality." This section captures the rational considerations and questions users have during the book swap process. DOES Section (Top, Light Blue) Key behaviors : "Sends messages to negotiate prices or ask about book condition....
