A mobile concept for clearer communication tools, hearing-related resources, and faster connection to nearby care providers.

Figma, accessibility research, presentation design

The challenge

Designing support that feels clear, calm, and practical.

People with hearing disabilities can face barriers when trying to communicate clearly, find trustworthy resources, or connect quickly with nearby medical support. The challenge was to imagine an app experience that feels supportive, simple, and practical without overwhelming users.

Objective

The goal was to design a mobile experience that helps users access communication support, helpful hearing-related resources, and doctor connection pathways through an interface that is calm, clear, and easy to navigate.

Audience

People with hearing disabilities, caregivers, family members, support organizations, and users who need accessible communication resources or nearby hearing-care information.

Constraints

The concept needed to feel accessible and respectful while organizing sensitive information, medical-adjacent guidance, and support features in a way that avoids confusion and reduces cognitive load.

Design responsibility

The project needed accessibility thinking, not only app screens.

I reframed the presentation around the user need: supportive communication, trustworthy resources, and a direct path to care. The layout now explains the product value before showing the visual screens.

Selected responsibilities

The new case study makes the accessibility and UX decisions easier for recruiters to evaluate.

Process

From accessibility need to mobile product presentation.

Step 01

Problem framing

I defined the accessibility problem around communication support, resource discovery, and faster connection to nearby care providers.

Step 02

Feature prioritization

I focused the experience around clear support tasks: communication resources, guidance, profile flow, and doctor or care-provider connection.

Step 03

Information architecture

I organized the product around simple paths so users can understand where to go without scanning dense or stressful interfaces.

Step 04

Interface design

I designed mobile screens with a calm visual direction, clear hierarchy, and accessible interaction patterns for a supportive user experience.

Design decisions

The product direction is built around support, trust, and reduced friction.

For an accessibility-focused app, the presentation needs to show care in the structure as much as the visuals. Each design decision supports a calmer path to help and information.

Support-first product structure

Reason: Users need a clear path to help, resources, and care information without unnecessary complexity.

Impact: The concept feels more focused and less overwhelming.

Calm and readable interface direction

Reason: Accessibility-focused products benefit from clear hierarchy, predictable layouts, and reduced visual noise.

Impact: The UI presentation feels more approachable and easier to scan.

Care-provider connection pathway

Reason: The portfolio summary highlights quick connection to nearby doctors as a core value.

Impact: The app concept becomes more practical and grounded in real user needs.

Final work

A polished slide-to-case-study presentation using the original HearMe visuals.

Outcome

An inclusive mobile app concept reframed as a modern UX case study.

The final HearMe concept presents an inclusive mobile experience for communication support and care discovery. The case study now frames the project around accessibility, user confidence, clear navigation, and the practical need to connect users with resources and nearby support.

Inclusive UX direction

The project centers users who need clearer communication and support pathways.

Simplified task flow

Key features are organized around resources, communication, and care discovery.

12 visual screens

The original slide presentation is preserved and reframed into a modern case study.

Recruiter takeaway

An accessibility-focused UX/UI project with clear product thinking and polished visual presentation.

This case study shows my ability to think through accessibility-focused product design, organize supportive user flows, and present a mobile app concept with a polished visual system.
