Meal Maestro

UI Design · 2025

A meal-planning app built around one idea: the hard part isn’t cooking, it’s deciding. Meal Maestro takes what you like, what you avoid and what’s already in the kitchen, and turns it into a week of recipes and the one grocery list that covers them. Placed third at the GDG Design-a-thon.

2AayushBuilt with FigmaThe Meal Maestro case study: a smart meal-planning app for personalised recommendations and nutrition guidance. It runs from the goal of making healthy eating simpler, through branding and primary research grounded in real voices and real data (12 discovery interviews, 140 survey responses, 4 comparison teardowns, 5 weeks), into key insights about why people abandon meal planning, then a design system of colour and type — Poppins for display and headings, Open Sans for body — and finally the home, recipe detail, tracker and explore flows.
The full case study — research with real users, the insights it earned, the design system, and the flows it produced.
