Google Nest x Lowe's

Interaction Design

The UX elective was tasked with creating an interactive spec-home experience for Google Nest. For this project, Google partnered with Lowe's to showcase Google Nest's products in a spec-home. This multi-touchpoint project required creating a campaign and a business-facing dashboard to monitor the campaign's key performance metrics.

Targets

Interaction Design

Create an interactive campaign for Google and Lowe's to showcase products at the Google Nest spec-home.

Dashboard Design

Create a dashboard for Lowe's and Google Nest to monitor the campaign.

Discovery

UX Research and Design Thinking

The research identified the requirements and deliverables for business-facing components of the dashboard and its users. In tandem, I researched the customer-facing assets and empathized with the audience of the campaign.

B2B Experience

Storyboards

I created storyboards to distinguish the needs of users from Google and Lowe's. The project had a two-month turnaround, so each student was assigned a focus for the internal dashboard to wireframe and prototype. My focus was to wireframe and prototype the director's dashboard experience for the Google Nest campaign directors.

Dashboard Users

The storyboards helped me research and identify what metrics provided the most value for different users based on their employment position with Lowe's and Google Nest.
