User Feedback 1: Alric
It looks too boxy. Images look very basic because of which aesthetic feel is missing.
User Feedback 2: Ashwin
The flow is fine but it would be nice if you could add a home icon so that I could easily navigate back to the Home page instead of clicking back icon multiple times.
User Feedback 3: Natasha
It would be better and easier to read if you could change the description of the chair from paragraphs to just bullet points.
The flow and navigation is smooth and is quite logical.
User Feedback 4: Bala Karthikeyan
The flow is good but my only concern is in the cart section where I feel for quantity it would be easier and user friendly to add +/- button instead of arrows.

Retrospective
What went well?
For me, establishing a brand, designing a logo and developing the rules around logo usage was the most immersive part of this project. Creating interactions and animations sparked my interest in learning more about it.
What didn’t go well?
Creating proper user flows to ensure a great and smooth online shopping experience was the most challenging task for me.
What can be improved?
I tried keeping this online shopping brand more elegant, formal and business-like. What I would like to improve next time is while sticking to the above characteristics I would like to come up with more friendly and welcoming designs.
