When the separate brand and interaction decisions come together, does the whole journey remain understandable? This is the first place in the sequence where I show the complete app candidate. The previous chapters established the project goal, colour roles, type criteria, visual language, mascot and layout alternatives separately. The integrated study uses those provisional choices to expose conflicts that an isolated swatch or drawing cannot show. It is a static design study, not a functioning or participant-validated app.

Reading the complete journey

The eight-screen board explores the route from welcome and journey overview through a fictional BA256 gate change from B12 to A04, optional support, step guidance and settings. The app’s intended structure also covers preparation, arrival, check-in, security, waiting, boarding and journey end; the gate change receives the deepest treatment because it is the scenario documented in the Week 18 sketches.

The alert should show current destination A04 and “Show next step” before a traveller is invited into any calming or support flow. “Previous gate B12” stays visible to explain the change. A support prompt can appear after the fact is readable. “Not now” must lead back to useful guidance, rather than leaving the person at a dead end. Support should remain manually available from the journey home.

What integration exposes

The lively route shape and character help identity, but both can make a narrow screen dense. A fixed artboard may also conceal problems at large text size. The small source note in the mockup needs stronger legibility. The static screens show one sequence; they do not establish whether navigation state survives dismissal, whether notifications arrive, or whether the actions work with VoiceOver. These are design and build questions for later pages.

The visual uses the current off-white/charcoal, lilac/lime direction. It should not be read as a final colour or type specification. The gate, route, flight and assistance content are sample material. There is no verified live UK gate feed or airport service connection for this concept at present.

Evaluation plan

Ask participants to find A04, explain B12, choose or dismiss help and return to the journey. Also test a simulated stale update: can they tell it is not current? Review the same task with larger text, VoiceOver, reduced motion and both appearances. Record where the screen itself changes after evidence, not only whether somebody says it “looks good.” The project’s questionnaire participants have not reviewed this board.

Taking forward — provisional integrated candidate: retain the information-first gate panel, explicit next action and optional support paths. The full layout is a working synthesis. Motion, sound, platform appearance and the app icon are developed next, before the technical build research.
