How might we improve organization, teamwork and communication amongst small design studios?
Juggling is hard.
Teamline aims to help small design studios manage projects and keep track of tasks and due dates using a form of a timeline. TeamLine is designed to create more awareness on project progress and encourage teamwork and communication. Designed for RISD Industrial Design Special Topics Studio Fall 2017.
The Design Challenge
During my internship at Figmints Digital Creative Marketing, a design studio based in Pawtucket, RI, I experienced what it was like to have to work on multiple projects simultaneously, communicate constantly with other team members as well as update clients on progress. This prompted me to design a project management app that touches on the needs of a designer working in a design studio setting.
While there are many other project management apps out there, I wanted my app concept to focus on increasing user awareness about the task they have to complete in context of the entire project timeline. I wanted the users to understand not only what their task is but how their tasks impacts and relates to other peoples tasks.
