The Challenge
Shared housing is a common practice worldwide for various reasons: financial situation, moving due to college, a job in a larger city, high rental prices, or simply wanting to save money. However, for most people, finding an ideal roommate can cost time and dedication.
The Solution
The created solution is an application that connects people looking to share housing in a safe and efficient way. The platform allows users to filter by preferences such as gender, age, and hobbies to find compatible roommates. Users have the option to search directly for advertisements or search for people willing to share housing. The solution was developed based on data and information obtained through market research and interviews with potential users. The goal is to provide an effective and safe solution for people looking to share housing.

Conclusion
In this case study, I explored design methodologies to solve problems. During the process, I conducted an analysis of the needs of potential users and the market, resulting in an interface that prioritizes usability.
Although the application was not implemented, the main proposed solutions aim to address the pain points identified in the initial research:
Increase in user satisfaction: Enhancing the chances of profile compatibility for users; Improvement in the user journey: By consolidating previous actions in one place, with the possibility of customization.
