iOS Gchat Concept

London based visual designer Tim Green has come across the same dilema that we have, no Google chat for your iOS devices.

After searching for a decent Google chat app to keep in touch with my colleagues in Hong Kong we were unable to find anything that didn’t either look incredibly ugly or barely work. I decided as a little weekend/evening project to have a go at putting something together and this was the result of half a week of evenings feverishly hunched over Photoshop by moonlight.

Further explanations are on each annotated slide but there’s plenty I havn’t explained fully in terms of interactions and animations. Perhaps I’ll try to figure how to show those later…
