Why do people eat what they eat?

People's choices of what to have for a meal is influenced by a variety of factors. My research revealed insights into recent trends regarding eating habits.

I found that

  1. People are increasingly cooking and eating at home

    They're also reducing the frequency of dining out and ordering takeout. This shift is driven by cost savings and the enjoyment of cooking as a hobby.


  2. Health and wellness is important to modern consumers

    Respondents had started to change their food habits little by little by doing things like including more unprocessed food in their diet.


  3. Food variety is important, but people struggle to cook unfamiliar ingredients

    There's a growing interest in trying global flavors, however people reported not knowing what they can make at home.

Tone and feel

In this design, I sought to evoke a sense of 'food history' and 'organic-ness.' To create a warm, nostalgic atmosphere, I chose a retro palette featuring rich, warm tones.

I set up a type and color system to make the UI designs feel consistent.

Giving and receiving continuous and thoughtful feedback

One of the things I've learned is how crucial it is to give and receive feedback thoughtfully. Especially for visual design it's all about setting aside personal biases and explaining things in terms of design principles.
