WeChat Mini Program UI Refresh

Company Thomas Cook China (In-house)

Role UI/UX Designer (Iteration Support)

Duration 2018-2019

Category Tourism/Travel Service

Background & Challenge

During the 2018–2019 product iteration, the mini program required a visual and interaction refresh. Existing pages lacked visual hierarchy, icons were inconsistent, and product detail layouts weren’t effectively driving conversion. Membership features were also underutilized due to unclear presentation.

Objectives

Improve icon clarity and brand consistency

Introduce a dedicated membership benefits section to support loyalty-building

Refine interaction patterns for smoother browsing

Enhance product detail visuals to increase engagement and purchase intent

My Contribution

As a supporting designer brought in mid-iteration, I focused on UI refinement and modular improvements:


  • Page Optimization: Updated key pages to create a more unified visual system

  • Icon Design: Redesigned the homepage and feature icons for better recognition and brand alignment

  • Internal Page Briefs: Produced design guidelines and specifications for internal teams to extend consistently

  • Vendor Coordination: Managed outsourced designers and provided clear briefs to ensure deliverables met quality and brand standards

Reflection

This project sharpened my ability to step into an ongoing iteration and deliver targeted improvements without full discovery-phase context. I learned to work within existing constraints, make incremental but high-impact visual decisions, and support the team with scalable guidelines that improved long-term consistency.
