Dashboard Mood Board

To begin my next project I came up with this small mood board of some dashboards I would like to take inspiration from.

All of these dashboards use a consistent colour palette that helps to highlight important information and create visual contrast between different elements. Colours are also used to help users quickly identify trends or patterns in data.

They also present the information in a way that is easy to read and understand, with a clear hierarchy of information. By using a combination of headings, labels, and data visualization techniques to group related information together

These dashboards use clear and easy-to-read typography for presenting information. The headings and labels are large enough to be easily read, while body text is of a legible size and typeface.

They are all consistent in their design and layout, with a clear visual style that is carried throughout the entire interface. This is helpful for the users to quickly understand how to navigate and use the dashboard.

Recording Data

I used the past week to record my data that I want to display in my dashboard. I done this by using the health app on my phone to get my steps, sleep and heart rate. I used screen time section from my settings to get my screen time and time on Spotify. I am lucky enough to have a blackbox in my car so that’s how I got the information about my journeys and how many miles travelled. Lastly I used my banking app to get a summary of my spending for the week

Sketches

Once I had all my data I began some sketches to get a rough idea of the layout of my dashboard so I can start wire framing next week.

I also sketched a few ideas on how I would display some of my data in charts.
