CHALLENGE & OUR SOLUTION

This project addressed the client’s need for a consistent and impactful brand presence across diverse platforms and brands. We provided ongoing design support producing video thumbnails for their evolving course series, refining their user interface to optimize user experience, designing engaging social media graphics that aligned with their brand style, and developing professional report layouts for clear communication. Furthermore, we designed an event booth to maximize brand visibility at industry events.

Video Thumbnails

Through the development of custom video thumbnails, this project aimed to enhance the user experience and strengthen the client’s brand perception. We designed series-oriented thumbnails for clearer content structure and used color-coding to help users easily navigate based on their interests. The result was a more intuitive and visually cohesive experience across the platform.

Social Media Posts

We created a visually consistent Instagram grid to strengthen the brand and make the feed more engaging. Each post was designed to stand on its own while fitting into a unified, cohesive look.

BOOTH DESIGN

We designed a booth that reflected the brand and drew people in. It featured strong visuals, clear messaging, and smart use of space to highlight key offerings and keep the flow moving.

UI DESIGN

We designed a custom UI tailored to the client’s needs, focusing on intuitive navigation and a smooth user flow. Colors, typography, and visual elements were chosen to align with the brand while enhancing usability. The result was a modern, user-friendly interface that met both functional and visual goals.

DESIGN EXPLORATION

We explored three color directions to show how palette choices affect look and feel. Each version offered a different mood, helping us pinpoint what best matched the client’s vision and project goals. The variations made it clear how intentional color use can shape both aesthetics and user experience.
