Problem Statement
While smart technology offers clear benefits to the hospitality industry, hotels and guest accommodations face several challenges in driving adoption and delivering a seamless experience:
❌ Low familiarity with smart home technology
Both guests and staff often lack exposure to smart devices, creating hesitation or resistance when interacting with unfamiliar tools.
❌ Overwhelming or complex interfaces
Smart platforms can be feature-rich, but without intuitive design, users may find them confusing—leading to frustration and minimal engagement.
❌ Underutilisation of platform capabilities
With limited understanding and poor onboarding, properties risk missing out on the full value of their smart systems, leaving many features unused and reducing ROI.
How We Solved It
We created a simple, easy-to-use interface with clear language and features that anyone can navigate, even without tech experience. The dashboard acts as a central hub for smart home controls, room info, notifications, and analytics.
To keep things flexible, we designed the widgets to stay balanced, so users can customize the dashboard without messing up the overall look.
Design System
The design system focused on being clear and functional, with a clean and simple look. A consistent style across all parts made the platform easy to use while keeping it professional.
