Challenge and Constraints
The challenge of this project is the time constraints, which I need to complete the design within 3-7 days.
Design Process
The process start with reading the design brief, understanding the requirement and start brainstorm ideas and working on the wireframe. After I complete some wireframe I submit to get some feedback and iterate the design as per feedback.
Designs
Below are the final wireframe for the community portal I created using Axure RP.
