Problem
The WD Venue media storage box was hardware device manufactured by Western Digital to allow network access to users' storage devices to interact and enjoy their personal media. The issue we needed to solve was to design an intuitive and friendly interface that would emotionally connect the users to their data.
Solution
We set out to design and build a media-rich aggregating interface with which users would access, interact, and share media files stored on network storage devices. The project was deep and lengthy, and involved intensive research, testing, and many rounds of sketches, wires, and comps. Images on the page are arranged according to this project work timeline.
