Introduction

Living with roommates or other family members means sharing chores, responsibility, and space, and can be stressful if not managed well. We wanted to create a co-living/housemates app that makes living together easier.

Timeline

From explorations to final designs in 3 months while working with other projects at the same time.

Background

Made as part of SB Creative Lab's Fall 2024 Project Team

Reflection

This was a really fun project and I really enjoyed working with a talented team. What I enjoyed most about this was how applicable this app was to my daily life — I was dealing with housemate issues at the same time and I was able to apply my own pain points to the project.
