Background
In a world where digital convenience is paramount, Smeg, a leader in elegantly
designed Italian appliances, faced a significant challenge. Despite their reputation
for high-quality and aesthetically pleasing kitchen appliances, their user manuals,
particularly for the ECF01 coffee machine, remained trapped in the static
and often inconvenient format of PDFs.
Problem
Solution
An interactive website for the printed manual of the Smeg ECF01 coffee machine.
The website will feature interactive elements such as animations, videos, and
step-by-step guides to help users navigate through the manual easily.

Data research
In developing my project, I undertook a focused background research and
conducted a survey with Smeg ECF01 users. This process was aimed at
evaluating their experiences with the static PDF manual and gauging
interest in a more interactive, web-based alternative.
User persona
People who seek efficient, visually engaging digital solutions for learning and troubleshooting,
prioritizing ease of use and interactive content over traditional manuals.
