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.

Our Clickable Prototype

  Part 3: Clickable Prototype - BookSwap We created a clickable prototype for BookSwap using Figma to bring our ideas to life and show how the app would actually look and work. This prototype covers the main user tasks and interaction flow that we planned earlier in our storyboard and conceptual design. Here's how we applied the design requirements for this stage: ● High Fidelity in LOOK We used soft tones like teal, purple, and white to give the app a clean, student-friendly feel. Fonts are kept simple and easy to read, with consistent use of spacing and layout across all screens. Our penguin mascot appears in several screens like the welcome, home, and profile pages to give the app a fun and memorable identity. All icons follow the same rounded, minimal style to match the overall theme. Main screens designed include: Welcome/Loading, Login, Home (Book List), Book Details, Favorites, Add Book, and Profile Settings. The visual design reflects how we want the final version of the ap...

Usability Testing Report

Usability Testing Report Book Swap System Initial Prototype For our initial prototype, we have created the interface for both primary task and subtask as stated below, and some extra features such as checkout with QR to pay. Primary task : To search and buy secondhand books. Subtask: Manage user profile. Add desired books to wish list. Seller can post an ad to sell books. Have chat session through WhatsApp Messenger. Also have checkout session in app-purchase.
