Rebrand
Aloha Airlines was an American airline known for its friendly and welcoming service. The airline incorporated Hawaiian cultural elements into its branding, including its logo featuring a hibiscus flower, which symbolizes hospitality and beauty in Hawaiian culture. My objective was to give Aloha Airlines' branding a minimalist approach. The main objective was to encapsulate the essence of a tropical airline that emphasized relaxation and vacation. To achieve this, I incorporated a palm tree that highlighted the sand as a symbol of the tropical paradise and complemented it with a bird, adding to the vacation vibe.

Design system

Starting with the branding guidelines, I assessed the UI requirements for Aloha Airlines' web, mobile web, and WatchOS platforms. Subsequently, I developed a design system to enhance efficiency, ensure consistency, and bring a sense of organization to the brand's digital presence.

Takeaways

During this project, I had the opportunity to dive deep into Figma prototyping. I honed my abilities in efficiently building components and auto-layouts while seamlessly animating transitions. Additionally, I had the chance to refine my brand and visual design skills and gain a comprehensive understanding of creating a design system. It was a valuable and enriching experience that allowed me to grow both personally and professionally.
