Orbi Hotels App

Problem

Orbi Hotels needed a mobile app to complement their website, providing a seamless experience for both guests and property owners. The challenge was to translate the website’s features into a mobile-friendly interface while maintaining usability, consistency, and efficiency.

Goal

Design an intuitive, user-friendly app that mirrors the functionality of the Orbi Hotels website while optimizing for mobile interactions. The app needed to offer smooth booking, property management, and communication, ensuring a familiar yet enhanced experience for all users.

From Web to App

Since the Orbi Hotels website was already designed, I used its structure and user flows as a foundation for the app, ensuring a seamless transition between platforms.

Research & Competitive Analysis

To understand how leading platforms like Airbnb and Booking.com translate web experiences into mobile apps, I analyzed their design patterns, user interactions, and navigation flows. This helped create an intuitive experience across desktop and mobile.

Wireframing & Stakeholder Feedback

Based on research, I designed wireframes outlining key screens and flows, presenting them to stakeholders for initial feedback and refinements.

Interactive Prototyping

With approved wireframes, I built a functional prototype, allowing stakeholders and potential users to interact with the app before development.

Final Product

After testing and gathering feedback, I refined the design by improving usability, optimizing layouts, and ensuring consistency with the Orbi Hotels brand, resulting in the final product.
