SHOPPING MALL PMS
2019. Documenting in progress,
more details about the design system are coming.
I was Assigned to redesign the internal Property Management System, which was used by Nanhai Group’s shopping malls in Beijing and Shenzhen.
To comply with my non-disclosure agreement, I have omitted and obfuscated confidential information in this case study. Images shown in this article were not final designs.
Design Goals
After interviews with stakeholders, I realized the original propose was to refresh the UI to make it more trendy, and somehow because it was a PMS with traditional, the senior leaders in Nanhai Group think it was not intelligent enough.
The old PMS design, articulating functions and interactions, but not the most trendy and fancy one.

The New Design
I walked through existing functions of the old PMS, brainstorm with product managers who’re in charge, we decided rather than over design on the new look, we might have opportunities in building a highlight board for each module.
The idea was about having an area, on each page, providing (applied if it has) :
• Summarization data charts, which can also function as data filter(s)
• Show full approval process and current approver(s), with the interaction of click to contact.
• Event alerts, and related action shortcuts
Also, I have designed a new login screen and navigation system with the awareness that the actual fancy monitor model used by the real users.
Design System
After having all stakeholders approved on the new design, I worked with the PMS designers of original version to hammer up all the needed page templates, and created the design guidlines with followed the concept of Atomic Design System.
ATOMS level
MOLECULES level
ORGANISMS level
TEMPLATE level
Since in the design process of this time, PAGES level design came before other 4 levels, so I am skipping showing examples here.
