Hex App
Hex App
Top 40 design out of 1,300+ submissions from 47 countries at the Bending Spoons Designflows Challenge.
Project Overview
Developed for the 2025 Designflows UI/UX challenge by Bending Spoons, this concept, ranked among the top 40 out of 1300+ from 47 countries, proposes an intuitive, design an app to manage Hexabots, the essential service bots of lunar colonies.
The challenge
How can we simplify critical task management in a high-stakes lunar colony?
Research
Understanding the scenario
The brief defined three user types—explorers, researchers, and lunar families—with distinct needs. I studied real-world control systems to guide my approach:
DJI Fly (drone app): intuitive flight control, live status, quick tasking
Industrial UIs: clear system feedback and direct manipulation under stress
Voice assistants: efficient hands-free interaction for constrained contexts
Key takeaways included:
Frequent and urgent task reassignment
Interface usability despite gloves or helmets
Real-time tracking and voice support as core expectations
Concept
Clarity, Control & Flow
To bridge the gap between technical efficiency and ease of use, the concept focused on four core design priorities:
Minimize cognitive and manual friction
Adapt the interface for both professional and family use
Use familiar mobile interaction patterns
Integrate voice interaction for hands-free usability
Execution
Translating the concept into core features
Building on the research and design goals, the interface was structured around four key features:
Task Assignment Flow – Designed for clarity and speed. Users select a bot, define a task, set location and priority, then confirm via tap or voice.
Real-Time Dashboard – Shows status, battery level, distance, and live alerts across bots.
Hands-Free AI – Voice-controlled layer for assigning, monitoring, and rerouting tasks.
Suit Mode – Optimized landscape view with high contrast and large touch zones for astronauts using forearm-mounted devices.
Wireflow - Mapping the task journey
The wireflow represents the end-to-end interaction, from opening the app to confirming task completion. Each screen was designed to support quick understanding and usability:

High-Fidelity UI
The dark UI was a deliberate choice. Inspired by control dashboards and game interfaces, it ensures quick readability and focus. In extremely low-light environments, like space habitats, it also helps the user’s eyes adapt more easily when switching between screen and environment.
Three screens were selected to represent the core moments in the user flow:
Dashboard – Clear Hexabot availability and status summary
Task Assignment – Intuitive task setup using tap or voice
AI Hands-Free – Natural language interaction and confirmation
Outcome
Top 40 finalist – DesignFlows 2025
The project placed in the top 40 out of 1300+ submissions for its clarity, usability, and thoughtful response to a futuristic brief. It translates critical task management into a clean, familiar interface—efficient enough for astronauts, simple enough for families.
