BRIEF
Building a visually distinct and playful brand identity from scratch for a new consumer app with consideration to how the design system would work not only across brand assets like the website, socials and merch but also app UI.
With a bold and empowering app premise, the brand identity needed to appeal to Gen Z women. We aimed to push the bounds of UI conventions elements while prioritising the user experience.
Design and aesthetic sentiment were frequently cited by creators as a key retention driver.
