My name is Lele Huang. I am a Bachelor of Design student, majoring in Communication design. In the following images I will introduce my Reform studio and typography work to you. With the development of the Internet, smartphones are increasingly becoming important platforms for people to find information, share experiences, and connect with friends and family. There are unique barriers that may prevent seniors from accessing the Internet and using new technologies. If the seniors cannot use their smartphones well, they will encounter a lot of inconvenience in their daily life. My Reform studio project helps seniors to embrace smart technology.

Slife App

Slife is an app designed for seniors around the world. There are 40+ interfaces in total. The app includes some basic functions that will be used in daily life, as well as some features designed for seniors, including health check, pill alarm, map and tracking, supermarket delivery and chat. The design simplifies operation of the interface, expanding the font size and using eye-catching and simple icons that are easy to understand for seniors. The app also includes a 24-hour online customer service, so even if their children are not at home, the app can solve their smartphone problems anytime and anywhere.

Slife - Health Check

The app will monitor the health of each senior at all times. It tracks your daily exercise, steps, sleep, water intake and weight. The app will provide intelligent analysis of your daily health score and give you suggestions based on specific data at different times of the day. Health tracker also lets you watch and record your heart rate, blood pressure and temperature. Self-tracking allows you to stick to a healthier diet, exercise more and gives you a better understanding of your health status. The emergency button calls for an ambulance as quickly as possible and lets others know if something unexpected has happened to the user.

Slife - Pill Alarm

Seniors usually have a lot of medications or supplements to take, but they always easily forget. Now the app will remind you at each medication time. Seniors can easily set their medication or therapy course in the app. Of course, it is also very easy to cancel or add a new medication. With Slife’s medication reminder feature, seniors will never forget to take their medications again!

Slife - Supermarket Delivery

Going to the supermarket during the Covid-19 period increases the risk for seniors. In order to maintain safety measures, more and more people are using online shopping to purchase essential items. Seniors can buy the freshest ingredients as well as daily necessities through the app, which not only brings great convenience and time savings, but also provides a new opportunity and experience for many seniors with limited mobility.

ROVER Magazine - Shanghai Secret Destination Travel Guide

Most of the guidebooks recommend to go to some famous places, but I think just going to the tourist spots is not a good way to know a city. Since I live in Shanghai, I know some special places in the area, such as a brunch place hidden in a small alley, or a restaurant with a great view. So I designed a Shanghai travel guide to provide people with some secret and interesting places as reference, which contains an introduction, pictures and addresses to each of the secret destinations.
