"Multiverse of Painting"

Project information

  • Category: UX Design
  • Duration: 4 weeks
  • Team: Individual Project
  • Tools: Sketch, Origami Studio, Procreate

This is an interaction solution for iPad painting apps like Procreate. It allows the users to use some interactive shortcuts and a "tree map" for more comfortable and convenient redo, undo and version management when painting on the iPad.

User Research

Focus Area

Users always need to focus on different parts on the screen. "Easy and Clean" is an advantage of iPad painting apps.

User Flow

The users' drawing process is convergent - with the linear process of undo and redo.But their thoughts are divergent, so they always add new layers or export different versions to compare which one is better.

"Progress Bar"

Based on the shortcut of using 2 fingers tapping on the screen to undo, if users don't uplift their fingers but rotate the fingers, the round progress bar will appear. The faster users move the fingers, the larger accelerated velocity the round bar has.

"Tree Diagram"

Different nodes represent different steps - draft, line, color...
