Bengaluru One Card, The Consumer Association of Bengaluru

Homepage design concepts · Stage 1 · 10 concepts
Prepared by UIPRO Corporation for The Consumer Association of Bengaluru · 26 October 2026

Ten directions for review

Choose the face of Bengaluru One Card.

Ten photo-led homepage concepts in two rounds. Each one tells the BOC story differently. Concepts 06 and 07 are made for Gen Z, and the second round uses an entirely new set of photographs. Open each concept, try it on your phone, and tell us which direction to take forward.

Sample contentMerchants, offers, events, testimonials and card numbers are illustrative for design review. Nothing is connected to a live system yet, and forms send nothing.
Real photographyPhotos are licensed stock from Unsplash (free commercial licence), listed in assets/images/CREDITS.md. CAB's own photography can replace them later.
What we need from youPick one concept (or name the parts you like from several). We then freeze its layout, fonts and colours as the reference for the full website.
