BS in Interaction Design — Interaction DesignKYNCTD
KYNCTD is a mobile platform designed to unify the fragmented car event experience. It enables people to discover events, connect with others, and share their participation in the car community.
Through research and on-site observation, key gaps were identified across event discovery, participation, and connection. Discovery was fragmented across platforms, participation lacked structure, and interactions remained largely ephemeral. The design approach focused on creating a cohesive system that organizes discovery, supports presence-based interaction, and introduces a persistent layer to engagement.
