Davivienda

MyHouse App

Davivienda wanted an app to complement the home search and financing experience we had designed for the web. Like the website, it needed to streamline the housing search and financing flows as much as possible.

Davivienda — MyHouse App

Process

We built upon the same archetypes and research process used for the website design and immediately focused on ideation and prototyping. We experimented with different design patterns, researched trends, and created an internal style guide with a basic component library, enabling the entire UI team to work seamlessly and stay on schedule.

Challenge

We faced two major challenges: the first was the unusually short deadlines, and the second was simplifying the complex mortgage application process within a mobile interface. To address the first challenge, we built a small component library and a style guide within the first week. This allowed our team of three to work efficiently, minimizing corrections and errors, ensuring we completed the project on time.
