1Challenge

Reporting damage shouldn't add to the damage

R+V, a major German insurance provider serving more than 30 million customers, needed to streamline damage reporting to prevent service delays and stay reliable.

2Concept

Paper first, pixels later

I ran paper prototyping sessions with insurance specialists to validate our assumptions about what users really need, then refined the flow in quick iterations.

3Design

A claim in three calm steps

High-fidelity mockups showed the flow in real-world use: answer a few questions, photograph the damage, review the summary and send.

4Takeaway

Short timelines teach you to stay flexible

The final screens became part of a tender proposal, helping the client picture the app in real scenarios.

The short timeline taught me a lot about managing design constraints and staying adaptable when a brief is still incomplete.
