personas

brainstorm + mood board:



analysis:


vulnerability is a big aspect of haircare and selfcare, more so the concept of bathing and the time and space we have on our own in the shower as we have random yet raw thoughts.



duschgedanken

“shower thoughts”


an online website community that allows people to share their most vulnerable “shower thoughts”
in a safe space while bonding with other community members




accessibility & the future of mobility:


public transportation has generated the oppurtunity for “lost time”; time that can be filled or remedied by a task

︎︎︎users can scan qr code that will be on all campaign material throughout public transport stations to fill the lost time in commute








social mission:


as a digital currency, minutes spent on the website can be measured as virtual “shower time”

average shower ︎︎︎ ~8 min
average shampoo use ︎︎︎ 30ml
average shampoo bottle size ︎︎︎ 250ml

64 minutes of showering ︎︎︎ a full shampoo bottle is used

therefore, every 64 minutes spent on duschgedanken,
one bottle of shampoo is donated to people in need.













welcoming interjection


︎︎︎when the qr code is scanned, the users are asked a mindfulness question and therefore are filtered: more serious users proceed and people uninterested are likely to skip

︎︎︎also acts as a reminder to be grateful and mindful









articles and features:


︎︎︎ articles on hair care, self care, and self love where “likes” are minutes spent on the article

︎︎︎ privacy feature to make comments and interact anonymously




clickable wireframe
