Spatial

Comercial interplanetary flights for business.

Challenges

The brief was simple: create an iOS + Android app. My aim to create something innovative quickly faced a creative block: what to do? That’s when I stumbled on sci-fi and looked for futuristic problems I could solve using 2019 tech.

Approach

Extensive research and intensive ideation were invested to find a feasible answer for the transportation issue. Spatial focuses on efficiency, reliability and security. Every aspect of the experience was carefully designed to reflect these values.

Brand

Spatial walks the talk. The customers aren’t always the users, but we should still provide a great experience to both of them. The Spatial brand resembles comfort and reliability. It is friendly and communicates “we got you, no matter what”.

Recall

A note-taking app for people in a hurry.

Challenges

The brief: create a notes app. The challenge: getting clear understandings of how/when the job needed to be done. It’s tempting to try fitting 50 features in one app, so I had to find a way to distinguish the essential and cool features.

Approach

Say you’re a digital content producer having and discussing creative ideas every day. You need a place to write down quick thoughts that isn’t overkill. I aimed for simplicity and usability. Each feature where it should be. No more than that.

Brand

The company should be perceived as creative, modern and conceptual. The minimalism is just one aspect of this image. That’s where the product directness comes from. It's about removing everything that makes the interface imperfect.

Mastery

A recommendation-based online menswear store.

Challenges

Brief: design an online store. After deciding to focus on the high-growth menswear industry, I faced my first challenge when trying to decrease the friction between the process of shopping and checkout. How can I make it more seamless?

Approach

I decided to build Netflix of menswear, except that men would only pay for what they wanted. To make it, a high rate of approved recommendations was key. Soon, knowing the customer became essential to curate top offers for them.

Brand

Brand perception is historically relevant in the fashion industry, but Mastery is a data company. How should I position it? I decided to embrace the stylish look present in the market’s DNA while adding the freshness of a tech startup to the mix.
