Brighten your community — together.

It can be difficult for care home residents to get to know each other and feel a sense of purpose. SeniorCircle makes it easy for residents to work together and accomplish a community goal.

Process

Witness the growth of SeniorCircle, from interviews to a high-fidelity prototype!

Sticky notes on a whiteboard, analyzing our findings from an interview.

Needfinding

We spoke with three people who identified as seniors about their lives and what challenges they face at their age.

Two of our interviewees, a married couple, sit in an armchair with their arms wrapper around each other.

Experience Prototype

After analyzing our initial findings, we interviewed three more seniors about their ability to find and engage with a community.

Concept Video

Our concept video illustrates our idea of encouraging folks who live in care homes to work together and accomplish a community goal.

Lo-fi Prototype

We tested our paper prototype with three seniors and uncovered additional insights on how to proceed with our user interface.

Medium-Fi Prototype

We created an interactive prototype to experiment with visualizing our graphic design.

Heuristic Evaluation

Our classmates evaluated our Medium-Fi Prototype according to 13 Usability Heuristics, delivering valuable feedback on how to improve our user interface.
