Task

Overview
You are to develop at least two different initial concept designs that would meet the requirements of the Local Restaurant. These designs will be wireframe only designs at this stage.
The Local Restaurant case study is located in Interact Resources. You need to read this case study before starting this assessment item. You will prepare a presentation for the Local Restaurant to display your concepts as well as discuss both concepts and the recommended design.

Your Task:

1. Sketch two (2) alternative interface designs for the Local Restaurant problem. These designs should be for a web page as viewed on a standard tablet screen (25cm x 26cm) with a suitable screen resolution. It is recommended that you use the Balsamiq Mockups or other wireframe tools for these concept designs. (60 marks)


2. As part of your presentation, you should indicate why these designs are a good solution for the Local Restaurant. The presentation should recommend one of your designs for further development and state why this design is recommended. (40 marks)

There are two goals in this assignment:

• The first is to exercise your user interface design abilities. Creativity in balancing usability with the constraints of the interface will be essential to successfully completing this assignment.


• The second is to start thinking about WHY you chose and used certain designs or design patterns. You need to be able to discuss why your design is a good solution to the problem.

The design sketches for this assignment can be hand drawn. But, if you do use hand-drawn sketches, then you need to ensure that they can be easily read when they are scanned into your presentation. It is highly recommended that you use the Balsamiq Mockups tool for the final copies of your concept designs.

Remember that you are sketching a concept design for an interface. Your designs are concepts that you are presenting to your client. They should not be accurate to the pixel-level.
