A problem

Our members needed keyless entry, notifications, and easier booking, but our digital experience was tied to the browser.

The ask

Business needed a native mobile app experience.

Additional challenge

A pandemic broke out.

Contextual Research

To observe a day in the life of a member, I worked undercover at our Washington D.C. location for a day—unknowingly a week before the lockdown.

Media Poll

Media Poll

4 in 5 workers said they don't want to go back to the office full-time.

Bottom Line

Data showed that small companies (1-3 seats) were attending in far greater numbers than big companies (20+ seats). So members from bigger companies became our primary audience.

Booking Experience
Storyboard

To help my team visualize the customer experience, I drew concept storyboards. This helped us prototype and discuss the experience before jumping into wireframes.

Booking Experience
Sketches

To quickly investigate potential screens in the booking experience, I made a few screen sketches.

Booking Experience
Process

After compiling feedback from sketches and storyboards, I created wireframes for our key app experience: booking a desk.

Surprise and Delight

One of the loudest and most recurring reasons that Industrious members kept coming back was hospitality. I worked to incorporate some of those attributes into the confirmation loading experience.

Impact

When the pandemic hit, we had to make strategic decisions to adapt our product. Not only were we able to ship the experience our business needed, we were able to create a robust product ecosystem tailored for our customers.
