After research and creating user personas for our target audience, user flow charts were created to ensure the app was easy to navigate, all needed actions are present and no dead-ends are experienced.
Due to the technical complexity of the app, focus on limiting the paths of action was a must to simplify user interaction and improve the process.
Low fidelity wireframes were created to aid in the positioning of the many elements this application would have to display. Doing this process without colour helps the designer focus on hierarchy and placement of elements within the app or webpage.

To bring this application to life, a blue and purple colour scheme was chosen and applied throughout this application. These colours represent feelings of calm and exclusivity - much of what real Butlers exude.
Interactable features or indicators are highlighted in complimentary colours or shades, none too bright to reinforce the calm, relaxing feeling of good a comfortable turn up/turn down service.
