Concept
Zapp enables users to search for traditional recipes suggested by local farmers. The app filters recipes based on the user’s proximity, ensuring environmentally friendly delivery options. This direct transaction platform bridges the gap between city dwellers and farmers, fostering a closer connection to food sources.

Process Development
Over an 11-week university project concluding in December 2021, our team conducted user habit research to understand target audience needs. I collaborated on the service’s visual aspects, focusing on the application’s graphic development to ensure an intuitive and engaging user experience.
