About Artloom 모바일 애플리케이션

ArtLoom은 신진 작가와 미술품 컬렉터를 연결하는 모바일 애플리케이션이다. 신진 작가에게는 작품 판매가 어렵게 느껴지고, 초보 컬렉터는 어디서부터 시작해야 할지 모르는 경우가 많다. ArtLoom은 소셜 미디어와 데이팅 애플리케이션에서 영감을 얻었다. 컬렉터는 몰입감 있는 가상 갤러리에서 작품을 둘러보고, 자신의 탐색 습관을 기반으로 매일 선별된 작품을 추천받는다. 작가 프로필은 각 작품에 담긴 이야기를 소개한다. 인공지능 채팅 어시스턴트가 작가와 컬렉터 간의 소통을 지원한다. ArtLoom은 iOS 기기용으로 디자인되었다.

Design Challenge: How can we design a dedicated, user-friendly platform that facilitates seamless connections between emerging artists and casual collectors?

Key research questions:

- What are the biggest barriers preventing emerging artists from selling their work?
- What motivates casual collectors to purchase art, and what challenges do they face?
- How do existing platforms fall short in serving these groups?
- What features would make an art marketplace more accessible and engaging for both artists and collectors?

This research aims to uncover insights that can shape a solution tailored to the needs of emerging artists and casual collectors, fostering a more inclusive and vibrant art market.
Research: Utilized digital survey services to analyze data on the challenges and needs of emerging artists and art collectors. Findings highlighted key challenges, including connecting with collectors, understanding pricing strategies, and effectively communicating their art to a broader audience.
Inspiration: Aspiring artists struggle to find buyers, while art lovers want to support them but face challenges in connecting.

Most platforms cater to established artists and collectors, leaving emerging artists to navigate the crowded space of social media like Instagram.

But does it have to be this complicated? How can we create a dedicated space for emerging artists and casual collectors to connect effortlessly?
Project Duration: The project started in June 2023 and finished in January 2024 in New York City.
