This solo project involved designing and adding a new feature to the Ensuro website. I handled everything from identifying the problem to UX research, visual design, and prototyping, with my experience as an Ensuro user informing the design decisions.


Ensuro is a blockchain-based, licensed (re)insurance company that aims to make insurance more accessible to the public, allowing anyone to invest in insurance risk and benefit from it.

Interviewed 3 users

“I have to click through multiple pools just to find out where my money is. I wish there was a simple way to see all my investments in one place.”

- Frequent Ensuro Users

Listing pools and there is no portfolio overview

The original flow is functional, but adding a dashboard reduces user friction. The new dashboard enables users to view all invested pools and directly access deposit functions, eliminating the need to navigate back to the pool list or individual pool pages.

Areas for Improvement:

Areas for Improvement:

Areas for Improvement:

  • The pie chart proportion is too small compared to other elements.

  • The deposit button is wider than the withdraw button, which bothers users; suggestion to use different colors instead of size to highlight.

  • The deposit/withdraw tabs in the pop-up screen draw too much attention, potentially leading to errors (e.g., depositing instead of withdrawing); suggestion to remove the ability to switch tabs.

  • Too many colors in one screen (e.g., 13 colors noted); suggestion to reduce to 6-7 colors for better balance.

  • Font inconsistencies (e.g., Inter for Portfolio Summary, Jost for the rest); suggestion to harmonize fonts.

  • Colors across movement tables need to be more consistent.
