PROJECT OVERVIEW
This project is a collaborative effort between my business partner and myself. Through thorough competitive research, we identified a gap in the market and found no existing platform like ours. I created the UX and UI, developing a distinctive experience tailored for both music and beer enthusiasts. Our platform offers breweries a new revenue stream through merchandise sales and increased visibility, providing a valuable discovery platform for their establishments.
Planning
I conducted comprehensive market research to explore existing offerings and developed a user experience designed to benefit both users and breweries alike.
