Logo creation

We were given the task of developing a branding identity, design UX/UI platform and implementing a comprehensive branding strategy for the Newstast.

Branding identity

In the Newstats, typography played a pivotal role in shaping the platform’s visual identity, ensuring readability.

Design UX/UI platform

To improve the UX/UI of the news app, we would start by conducting thorough user research, including surveys, interviews, and usability testing, to identify pain points and user preferences. Based on the findings, we would refine the navigation to be more intuitive, ensuring a smoother user journey. Next, we would enhance the visual design by creating a consistent color palette, typography, and brand elements that align with the app’s identity. We would also implement responsive design to ensure optimal functionality across all devices. Finally, we would regularly gather feedback and perform A/B testing to continuously refine the app’s experience.
