Mobile App for Four Corners
A companion application for an immersive dining experience
Background
Though my research, I found that immigrants often struggle to overcome cultural barriers when building social relationships. However, sharing different food traditions allows people to open up about their own cultures and themselves.
That’s why I designed Four Corners: Global Food Experience, to create opportunities for cultural and personal sharing, thereby fostering stronger social relationships and feelings of belonging.
As a companion to the physical space, I designed this app to bring all the stages of the experience together in a cohesive digital hub.
Goals
Create a cohesive digital hub for the Four Corners: Global Food Experience.
Supplement the Physical Space
Provide a second level of information and interaction for the user to explore the exhibit spaces. Allow the user to collect and save information for future reference. Add value even after leaving the physical space.
Foster Connection
Create a focal point for sincere conversations of cultural and personal sharing to empower deeper connections throughout the experience.
