Poland based graphic designer Lukasz Jackiewicz was tasked to design a pizza (and other dishes) ordering mobile app based on the wireframes delivered by client. The application was designed totally from scratch. The client didn't have any logotype, typography or established colors so the look of application fully depended on Lukasz.

After short research of similar applications I have started to wondering what should I do to stand out my layout from others. I have decided that I will use dark colour scheme because other apps used mainly light colours. Moreover I wanted to strongly exhibit the products, I wanted user watching the products could feel it very sharp, in really plastic way. I have decided to use dark wooden table as a background and dishes should slide over it when user choosing what he wants to eat. We can’t see it on the static images but app should be rich-animated for example with leaves moving over table and other parallax effects.

I could describe my design style as simple and clean, strongly grid based with bright and fresh colours. I don’t like when the layout is chaotic, irregular or when the design is too rich. I think we should remember that everything what graphic designers do is primarily the tool which should be easy to use and user-friendly. I always try to keep the balance between nice look and usability.

My advice for beginners (and not only for beginners) is to be modest and practice a lot. You should never think of yourself that you are good player because you are never good enough. You can be better. You have to love what you do because only then the project has soul and deep. The rest is only practice, practice, practice and viewing the best designers!
