Connecting coffee ordering with the wider café experience.

The product challenge

Bring ordering, drink customisation, payment, pickup and loyalty into a connected mobile experience while retaining Eataly’s editorial and brand character.

My contribution

As Design Lead and Product Manager, I led a team of three designers and two developers. I mapped user journeys, led benchmarking, designed key interfaces, and oversaw the design system and prototypes, working closely with the client throughout the project.

Delivery outcome

Successful design delivery helped secure a larger follow-on opportunity for PwC, laying the groundwork for continued collaboration with Eataly.
