Designing A Community Mobile App for Edizeven

Project Goals

Edizeven needed a mobile community app to better connect with hospitality employers and culinary job seekers, with a focus on scalability and trust. We set out to create a mobile app that would bring its community of culinary professionals closer together, fostering mentorship, networking, and career development beyond the job board.

Our Approach

We collaborated with the Edizeven team to define key user journeys, prioritize core features like messaging,
event discovery, and profile building, and design a seamless mobile experience that felt familiar yet fresh.
User Research

Insights revealed a strong desire for peer support, mentorship opportunities, and quick access to local events and gigs. These findings directly shaped the brand and app’s core features.

UX/UI Mobile App Design

We designed a clean, swipe-friendly interface with intuitive navigation, rich user profiles, and engagement-focused features that encourage daily check-ins and peer-to-peer support.

Development Ready

The design files were handed off with cross-platform compatibility in mind, that supports push notifications, in-app messaging, and moderated community spaces.

Design strategy

Our design strategy was rooted in community-first thinking—prioritizing ease of use, emotional connection, and repeat engagement. We created user flows that support quick check-ins and meaningful interactions, while the visual language blends professional polish with the gritty, high-energy personality of the kitchen world. We used a UI kit to get started, save the Edizeven team time to market, by validating the concept quickly with users.
