After OEDC’s announcement of South Korea’s rapid rise of greenhouse gas emissions due to the economy’s dependence of fossil fuels in 2017, the government of Korea is seeking for urgent actions, yet announced that "low-carbon revolution" can only happen if all citizens practice and serve a green transport system. The government of Korea first acknowledges bicycle’s positive impact on environment, and set a goal to make South Korea to be a Two-wheel country by 2020. They are first providing opportunities for people to easily have access to bicycles by setting city bikes around Seoul, and are planning on expanding bike infrastructure upto 201km within next three years.
So I found needs to redesign the Seoul Bike App for it’s accessibility. The goal for this project is to provide an app where anyone can easily:
STYLES & USER FLOW
I decided to follow the minimal and chromatic design of Seoul Bike’s logo throughout the entire redesigning process, but keeping things more sophisticated and simpler by reducing imcompetent informations and sticking with MVP(Minimum Viable Product) focused user flow.
STORY BOARD & IA (Information Architecture)
I created a storyboard to create the larger picture to understand users behaviour. Based on the scenario, I organized and structured content in an effective and sustatinable way. The storyline shows that the users needs is to pay as quick as possible in the app and ride a bike to the nearest station at the destination. Within the users goal, I’ve created an Information Architecture (IA) that focuses on helping users to find informations and complete tasks in a most efficient and quickest way.

SEOUL BIKE’S CURRENT APP
WIREFRAME
#1. MAIN PAGE - Searching Bike Stations for Available Bikes or Bike Stands
Currently each station accommodates 10 bicycles, and it’s often very hard to find an available bike spontaneously. As a solution, the main page will offer a map that shows your current location with nearest bike stations, where you can also check how many bikes and bike stands are available.
