Projects
Luuna is a concept of sleep manager app for IOS. It helps to control your bedtime routine with sleep hygiene and phase tracking, lucid dreaming trainer, bedtime reminder, ambient sounds, smooth awakening (based on a phase), anti-oversleep and apnea detection. The challenge of this project was to provide users with extended functionality in a simple user-friendly interface.
Awards
I am honored to receive an Awwwards Honorable Mention for the "Escape the Kim" website, a longread that uncovers the stark realities faced by North Korean refugees. Contrasting the state's narrative, the site highlights hunger, poverty, and human rights violations that drive people to seek a better life.
To captivate and immerse viewers, I designed the site as a scroller arcade, enabling users to delve deeper into the refugees' experiences. This Awwwards recognition highlights the power of design in revealing critical issues and fostering empathy.
Work Experience
I was invited to collaborate on a major brand redesign project for a recruiting agency, tasked with building a system of landing pages. As part of the project, I applied my skills in UI/UX design and developed a UI-kit to create adaptive mobile/tablet layout designs.
At Twinby, I designed onboarding and user profile screens for a dating startup app, collaborating with the team to brainstorm new ideas. My tasks included UX research, low-fidelity and high-fidelity prototyping, UI development, and communication with the development team. This experience allowed me to enhance my UX design skills, creating user-centered digital experiences that meet business goals.
