How to Bring Asthma Management into Home?

Parents have busy lives + a hard time getting reliable information - places they go

• Online Support Groups      • Advocacy Sites      • Google

Answers/ solutions get confusing with confliciting facts



Statistics 

• Pediatric asthma prevalence (Chicago): 12.9%

• Significant neighborhood variability: 0 - 44%

• Pediatric asthma mortality + hospitalization in Chicago 2x national average

Insights









Parents + kids aren’t on same page about asthma management

Asthma apps solve one solution

Parents don’t have one reliable place to go for information

Prototyping










Inspiration

My goal was to create a double ended app for two generations that need to communicate about medical information

I needed to find a clear way to show the most relevant information to both audiences, so visual chunking was the best way to organize this

More information/ support/ resources would be on the app as well, but not highlighted on the front page

Part I: Product + UI




Slow cookers haven’t been innovated on in years

A product known to live in the “kitchen graveyard”

How do we update + better market slow cookers for people?

Earthy, Energetic, Futuristic

My team worked on packaging and logo; I focused on color research + web layout




Colors
