UI Design
Wireframes
My team and I brainstormed to explore different layout and functionality options, consider user needs and preferences, and generate innovative design solutions. This collaborative process also enabled us to gather feedback and iterate on ideas to create wireframes that effectively meet the project requirements.
Style Tiles
I revamped the style guide to reflect the client's vision of making Humblebrag fun and welcoming. Incorporating vibrant colors such as green and blue, the design exudes professionalism, modernity, and energy simultaneously.
