DateNighter App

PROJECT Design a mobile application that solves a problem in the world that you are passionate about.

CONCEPT The Date Nighter app is a personalized dining concierge app for people who love to dine out regularly, but don’t have the time to do the discovery or make reservations themselves. It learns your likes and dislikes, provides quick suggestions for new restaurants to try, and makes it easy to set up recurring date night reservations. 

A darker color palette was chosen in order to to give it a slightly more sophisticated appeal than its contemporaries in the restaurant apps field, like OpenTable or Yelp.

Filson Soft, a geometric sans-serif typeface designed by in 2014 by French type designer Olivier Gourvat, was chosen for its playful features such as the curvy tail on the R, t and k. The overall design of the letters gives it a bit more personality keeping the app from feeling too sophisticated. Not every date night needs to be at a white table clothed restaurant.

The overall architecture of the app was designed to be quick and easy. It was something that people could do quickly on their bus ride to work.
