Looking for examples of some “final touches” to enhance an existing (raw) user interface.
I.e nothing related to the core functionalities of the application, but rather examples of all these little details which give an application a “polished” look (new fonts, change in layout, more descriptive labels…others ?)
The target platform will be a mobile platform (android/iphone).
Note that I’m severly graphically impaired regarding colour and shape combinations, so anything too sophisticated will probably pass me by completely 😉
