Parchment mobile element

I would like to share a idea of a mobile UI element that I been designing during the weekend.

I haven’t figured out exactly how it should be implemented in the UI but the idea is to have it as a drag down field with text.

Basically when you drag the part with the arrow down you reveal a page with text and when you drag it up you close it.

This could be a interactive way to hide and show short text information by the users choose.

As in my example it could be a “More about me page which could be implemented in a personal portfolio mobile site for example.

Hopefully the interactive design will bring curiosity to the user and it could also be a fun way to interact to slide the parchment up and down.

What do you think?

Icon Suggestion for Systembolagets app

I’ve been looking into Systembolagets app lately.

I think it looks great in many ways but it’s one detail that I’ve been thinking on.

To me I don’t instantly understand what the icon for “pris”(price in swedish) is suppose to look like.

With the context “pris” I understand that it’s looks like a stack of bills.

But without the context it could be any kind of stacked cards.

Personally I prefer when a icon are able to explain itself without the use of context.

So I have made a suggestion on a different icon.

Hopefully this icon are easier to understad without using the context but are still connected to the context.
