The Challenge
Build an engaging, multi-layered reading ecosystem that feels both personal and communal without overwhelming the user. The experience needed to feel lightweight, accessible, and purposeful across onboarding, discovery, and post-purchase touchpoints.
The Solution
The design system prioritizes warmth and clarity, using rounded visual elements, friendly type, and segmented onboarding flows. Modular content blocks were used across pages for easy personalization and scalability. Swap journeys and tracking flows were crafted to feel magical yet informative.
The Result
The final prototype showcases a holistic reader experience from profile curation to community participation with high visual recall and seamless user paths. The interface encourages return usage through thoughtful interactions, goal-setting features, and delight-driven microinteractions.
