Salam.<\/p>\n
It seems that a lot of people are truly concerned about the halal status of E-codes found in their everyday groceries.<\/p>\n
After the first version of E-Code Halal card 1.0, today I officially announce the new version 2.0. From now on, I will call it ECHoeS Card, which stands for E-Code Halal Status Card.<\/p>\n
In this latest version, I have redesigned the card from ground up, doing a bit of research from some websites and existing apps in order to make it relevant and updated.<\/p>\n
This is how the first concept looks like. The idea is to have three columns and the numbers put under their respective categories.
\n
\nI printed a mock up and took it to the supermarket for practical test. Then I decided to change the layout to portrait so that it will fit nicely in your hand. Just like when we use our phone.<\/p>\n
In the first design, I put the numbers in three main columns. However, based on my experiment, it takes more time to browse in separate three columns. So that’s why I decided to remove the columns and put the codes back in order.<\/p>\n
I was inspired by the user interface in mobile, namely the Apple iPhone. Thus, I decided to give it a 3D look rather than flat colors by adding some gradient and shiny plastic button effects on the numbers.<\/p>\n
