Mockup made by me. That's right it was a real model!
Bagel Bus
Getting creative with wicked problems
Overview
The Bagel Bus is a food truck that relies on its community in order to provide cheap and free meals to those who cannot provide for themselves. The bus allows for multiple locations in a city to be served each day while picking up food with ease each night.

Questions
How do you provide a service to untraceable and forcibly out of modern touchpoint users?
What effect does this new meeting place have on those not directly involved? Is it a bad or good experience?
What resources are currently available for those seeking alternate and low cost food options?
Solution on wheels
The Bagel Bus (not life scale)
In my solution I would need to design the bus; how it drives, where it stores food, where volunteers can cook and prepare the food, and so on. I would also need to think of ways to market the bus to its target audience.
Marketing ideas
- Stickers?
- Federal funding?
- Social media?
- Paper brochure !!!!
Advertising like its 2003
A brochure to keep users up to date
The brochure would need to break up 5 main points of information: where it is, what it provides, how long it will be in place for, who is welcome, and what it looks like.
This was a project where I really got to get creative with it and have some fun in designing a system to better a user experience.
