The problem

Four surfaces, one morning

Four surfaces, designed at different times, need to feel like one product.

Hardware

The smart locks.

Wall kiosk

By the lockers.

Phone app

Before you arrive.

Admin dashboard

For workplace managers.

My role

Advisor and mentor

Product design, advisory and mentoring through Owlry.

The process

A weekly crit

Work comes in any state, and feedback is tagged so nobody guesses how strongly it is meant.

Feedback tag

Comment

An observation.

Feedback tag

Question

To answer.

Feedback tag

Consideration

To weigh up.

Suggestion

To try.

Onboarding before screens

  1. The business and the users

    Before any screens.

  2. Founder conversations

    For a dashboard audit.

  3. A consistency pass

    Across every surface.

The solution

One product everywhere

A wall kiosk

Finding and opening a locker on site.

A phone flow

Booking one before you arrive.

A shared foundation

A March 2026 pass at colour, type and components.

Reflection

What outlasts the work
