about.
University of Michigan students often struggle to find study spaces that are available, quiet, and open late, which can make studying feel monotonous and frustrating. As part of a semester long project for Kappa Theta Pi, my team of four designed a study spot tracker with a social-media-inspired interface. It makes discovering, rating, and sharing campus study spaces easier while ensuring students always know where to go and what to expect.
features.
Studi allows users to rank campus study spots across eight metrics and share their reviews to a live feed. Each post includes an overall ranking out of 10, user notes, a location tag, a photo, and the option to tag other users. Users can explore and engage with posts in their feed, view their past rankings on their profile page, and check the Leaderboard to see the top 10 highest-rated study spots on campus. To make finding spaces easier, the site also provides direct directions to each location.
Built with Remix.js and React.js, the project leverages Supabase for backend functionality and GitHub OAuth for secure authentication.
results.
The final deliverable included four high-fidelity screens, an interactive prototype, and a cohesive typography and color system. I worked closely with engineers during the handoff process, preparing annotated Figma files, exporting assets, and ensuring interaction details were clearly documented. This collaboration helped resolve edge cases early and ensured the build stayed consistent with the design vision. The project was then pitched to an audience of 35+ stakeholders and officially launched.
