Project overview

The work
behind the work.

My contribution combined ideas shared in design reviews, design system components and design governance.

The project frames give that contribution context: expandable account groups, account details, and transfers share recurring structures while each task has its own information needs. The details below examine those patterns at screen scale.

Decision in focus

One home. Two information densities.

The same home screen can offer a compact account overview or expose balances and account actions. Compare what stays fixed with what expands.

Collapsed: the account landscape

Account groups, counts and disclosure arrows fit in a short list. Transfer, Pay bill and Top up sit above the groups, separate from any one account.

Collapsed: the account landscape

Collapsed home state · detail from the original five-frame design board.

Expanded: the account within it

The Bank Accounts group exposes a balance summary, debit-card activation and individual account cards. The Credit cards group now sits near the bottom of the screen.

Expanded: the account within it

Expanded home state · the source board’s selection outline is retained.

Keep a stable action area

The identity, greeting and everyday actions hold their position in both frames. The changing account content sits beneath that shared structure.

Give repeated detail a shared shape

The expanded savings cards repeat account identity, balance and an Account details action. This is the visible component pattern, rather than a different layout for each account.

Recognise the height cost

More account detail means fewer account groups fit at once. The pair makes that density tradeoff visible; the expanded view is not universally better.

My contribution combined ideas shared in design reviews, design system components and design governance. These are two states on one design board, not a before-and-after release comparison.

Reflection

The constraint.
The response.

The constraint

A mobile banking system needs recurring patterns without flattening the differences between tasks. Account discovery, transaction history, and transfers each need a recognisable structure and a clear next action.

My response

I contributed ideas through design reviews, worked on design system components, and contributed to design governance. The project board makes the recurring account, action, and transfer patterns available to examine in context.
