Introduction

De Beers wanted an in-store aid for their sales teams to help when choosing diamonds. The brief was to create an informative storytelling tool that takes a customer through the technical integrity of the diamond they are interested in, as well as the CSR and provenance story.

Designing the user experience

Designing the user experience

The user experience needed to be luxurious, premium, simple and elegant, while allowing the customer to explore quite extensive and detailed CSR information. This was done by creating a 'chapter' storytelling schematic, where details were revealed through progressive disclosure.

Below are just some of the initial ideas and working diagrams with wireframes that resulted in the completed app.

I learnt a lot. Some of which I was genuinely surprised by.
