Designers of Color

Project Scope

Approaching Diversity in Design

Designers of Color started off as an individual UI/UX research project for a capstone class at UC Davis in response to the DIS 2018 theme of diversity in design. It became a collaborative project with my classmate that combined the idea of diversity in Design and ethnic diversity. The project was showcased at Makerfaire 2018 in San Mateo, CA. A working, functioning website can be found here.

Map

Visualizing Diversity

The interactive platform utilizes MapBox to generate visual data for the geographic density of designers and their disciplines. When data is submitted through the profile form, they are populated and stored into Firebase.

Profiles

Interactive User Experience

The storytelling aspect of DoC meant to give users a voice and share it with the world. The questions for the profile asked a variety ranging from the design discipline itself and some in regards to ethnicity and the struggles of being a POC in the design field.
