NANA (Nonni in Affitto, Nipoti in Affitto) is a service design project connecting two generations that both have something the other is missing: time on one side, someone to learn from on the other.

01

The service

Two groups, one gap. Older people with more time than ever; younger people who want to learn something hands-on, from someone who has done it. NANA puts them in the same room, and turns abandoned spaces into the place where that happens.

02

Design direction

Moodboards first, then a style tile: colour, type, tone and components fixed before a single screen. It is the step that makes everything downstream faster, and the one people skip.

03

Built, not mocked up

The app is not a clickable mockup. It is a real interface running online, so the service can be tried instead of explained.

AI inside the process

I used Claude Design as a design tool throughout, exploring its new features on a real brief. AI integration in my own workflow is something I keep pushing: not to generate the work, but to move faster between idea and something you can look at.

Approach & craft

Moodboards and style tile, and the full app: a working prototype anyone can open in a browser, plus the landing page around it.

The outcome

  • A prototype you can actually use, not a slide deck
  • One visual system carried from moodboard to shipped screen
  • AI pushed all the way through the design process
