Hello, my name is Karlos Zammit and I will be graduating this year with a Bachelor of Design. The last three years of my studies here at the University of Waikato I have learnt a tremendous amount and have been a part of such an amazing group of designers.

Throughout college I never really thought about the importance of design and never really knew what was involved. I always associated design with art or drawing. Once I realised what went into design and how important it is, then I got hooked. Design is in everything and the opportunity to be as creative as possible really makes it an enjoyable career. The past three years studying here at Waikato have taught me a lot, I have learnt how to manage my time efficiently, I have also developed a wide range of skills in design. My passion for UX/UI design has grown tremendously.

project description

Looking after your health is important, but it seems that New Zealanders are not that educated in how to do so, nor do they know what is inside the foods they are eating. One in every three kiwis are obese, this is quite a concerning number although it can be reduced by changing two important factors in peoples lives. Diet and exercise.

Through ‘Summit Health & Fitness’ I have created an app that allows users to track their food, track their exercise, create, and browse different food menus that will help them with their personal goals. Making people more aware about their fitness choices is the goal, having someone think about what they are about to eat or what kind of exercise they will be doing for the day instinctively- this is the outcome I’m wanting. I have also created a series of three posters that promote the Summit Health & Fitness app.
