Conversational Interface

Conversational Interface

AI Spaces Booking

This proof-of-concept explored how users could book spaces using a conversational interface powered by AI. The goal was to allow users to bulk-book resources—like reserving a desk at the same time every day—through a chatbot, rather than using the existing manual process.

While I had reservations about the direction (I felt the challenge could’ve been better solved through a more intuitive UI rather than relying on AI), I took this as an opportunity to dive into conversational design and explore how natural language interactions could integrate with existing workflows.

Key Considerations

  • Designed a sleep, chat-style UI to support space booking via AI interaction.

  • Considered the flow for bulk-booking spaces across days/weeks.

  • Balanced form function to keep things user friendly and intuitive.

  • Reflected critically on the solution, offering alternative journey suggestions to improve user experience beyond AI.

  • Used this brief as an opportunity to demonstrate flexibility and adaptability to challenging concepts.

Outcomes

The result was a clean, friendly interface that handled multi-step bookings in a more human way. If developed further, I’d love to evolve this concept into something more context-aware by offering proactive suggestions, real-time validation, and fallback paths for more clarity and control.
