Topcoder Community Code of Conduct  
The Digital Product Catalog (DPC) is a repository for Hestia digital assets (PDF, images, 3D models, videos, etc.). Hestia websites and applications (Business to Business B2B and Business to Consumer B2C) will connect with the Digital Product Catalog to request these digital assets using API calls. 

Building on the design problem and your existing design files from RUX 1, RUX 2, and UI Design Final 1, the scope of this challenge is to design a mobile phone-sized version for this application. How do you break down the application requirements and user experience to be an engaging phone experience?

Design Problem
For the final round, we are asking you to design the native phone-sized experience for the DPC application. What this means is you must think about what is required and necessary for the phone experience.

- Search
- Dashboard
- Product Details

What is important to the "mobile user" when using the DPC application? Prioritize the important information to be displayed in such a small space. In addition, how do you include some of the cutting edge concepts we discussed for the DPC application over the past two days.

Design Concepts/Thoughts
- Mobile and specifically phone! 
- You can plan for a native iPhone experience.
- What is important for the mobile phone experience?

Branding
- The customer has existing Hestia brand guidelines to use for this application. We would like you to follow the branding but focus more on creating a great user experience, and providing design concepts for solving the problem than focusing on the branding.
- You can download the logo file from here


Audience
- Hestia Employees - Employees looking to search and view assets on their phones.
