- Design Challenge
- The main task was to design and prototype an experience for planning which plants to plant during different seasons. The app should have an option to search plants among different categories with a filter. It should be easy for a new user to find different plants. All of the important information about the plant and how to take care of it should be in the app. The app should be easy to use and understand and at the same time visually interesting, modern, and minimalist.
- Project Duration
- The project started in January 2021 and finished in June in Russia.
- Operation Flow
- In the app you can find plants from different categories. Plants have different tags, so user can search for plats for beginners or pro depending on their experience. Each plant has a description and also information about how often to water it and tips of how to plant and grow it. User can add plant to their plants list and add notification which will notify of the time it should be watered. In the watering reminder page there is a calender with all of the user's plants and times where they should be watered. Also app contains different interesting articles about plants.
- Research
- I started the work by analyzing similar apps and created different user stories to understand the needs of all the users. After that, I made scenarios based on them, created a customer journey map, and made wireframes. Then clickable prototype was tested on different users, so it can be iproved. After that I started working the overall UI design, so that it suits the target audience.
- Inspiration
- Design for the app was inspired by the nature and plants, so the color pallete consists of different tone of green color. There are a lot of photos of plants in the app and elements in the interface have round corners to convey calm and peaceful atmosphere.

Design Interview about Plant Planner Mobile App
The design for the app was inspired by nature and plants, so the color palette consists of different tones of green. There are many photos of plants in the app, and elements in the interface have rounded corners to convey a calm and peaceful atmosphere.
The main focus of the app is to provide an easy experience for people who want to care for their plants. It offers guidance on how and when to plant specific plants, optimal growing conditions, and includes reminders for watering plants.
The design of the concept took one month.
The design was inspired by an appreciation for nature and a desire to create an app that helps people care for their plants more effectively.
I enjoy spending time in nature and caring for plants. My goal was to create an app that consolidates information about planting and plant care in one place. I was inspired to create easy-to-use app, especially for those who are less familiar with plants. Whether users are beginners or more experienced, this app can help them improve their plant care skills.
The app is designed for young people who are eager to learn how to grow plants.
I came up with the name "Plant Planner" for this design to reflect its purpose: the app helps users with planning the best times for planting and reminding them when to water their plants. The name signifies that the app serves as a tool for organizing and managing plant care schedules effectively.
The design was made in Adobe XD.
