GenFund: Figma flow
For the course Technology in Context, my group and I decided to design an app for sharing bulky waste. Many people discard of furniture, kitchenware and similar items by putting them out onto the street. These items, however, are often in quite good condition and could still be put to use. While there are already solutions to this, namely Facebook groups and the Aarhus initiative, ReUse, we see room for improvement: ReUse has only one location and users have no way of knowing what they might find there and while Facebook groups give their users the option to add pictures, the different items are shown i chronological order rather than by relevance, distance from the user and/or quality. We wanted to design a platform that incorporates these features in one designated app, so that users can both gather and discard of still usable items.
