Social Table

Social table is an app that provides an effective solution for reducing food waste.

(Case Study 2017)

 

Intro

I've been interested in food waste problems for a long time. In summer of 2018, I wanted to donate some of my excess food ingredients because I went on a long trip. I found some apps for food sharing and donation, but there were minimal activities on the app. Through this project, I wanted to design an app that provides effective solution for reducing food waste.
