Vier Jahres­zeiten und ein Terrassen­garten

Overview

A puzzle app was developed for the client Schloss Wilhelmsburg Schmalkalden and the Stiftung Thüringer Schlösser und Gärten (STSG) to help both adults and children discover fascinating details about the estate and the garden culture of bygone eras. The app combines interactive elements and educational content and offers an exciting way to explore the history and architecture of the palace grounds.

The Challenge

The task was to develop a PWA and game concept that would appeal to both children and adults and balance fun with educational content. The challenge was to cater for different interests and abilities while ensuring that the game was accessible, intuitive and entertaining on all devices and platforms.

Research

The team and I visited Schloss Wilhelmsburg Schmalkalden and met with its representatives to gather valuable content for the app. This on-site research and the joint workshop shaped the game concept and ensured that the app reflects the historical and cultural significance of the location.

Design

I created wireframes to design the game concept and then developed a design system based on STSG's corporate identity guidelines. After final approval, the app design was handed over to the development team for coding and implementation.
