5th semester interaction design students at The Design Village (TDV) created a digital Cafe application from scratch. This was a roundup of accumulated skills and learnings of three years at the institute.
The batch had to choose hyper-local issues in their immediate environment and come up with multiple experience design interventions, using their accumulated skills. The students found the problem in food ordering and payments at the canteen.
Tushar Kaladharan, mentor and facilitator at The Design Village (TDV), said “The end result was a digital experience through a smartphone application that serves both customers and the canteen personnel. Food ordering, ledger systems and payments were all packaged into a seamless experience with future considerations of inventory management and employee ratings/feedback features.”
Students also pitched higher management for funds to make the village cafe app a ubiquitous cafe experience for all Villagers.
