Halloween Design

Duration: 4 weeks
ROLE: UI/Visual designer

A seasonal visual refresh for the Wanderboat app, designed to create a more playful and immersive holiday experience.

As the solo UI & visual designer on the team, I collaborated closely with product designers to explore interaction details that could naturally blend into the existing product experience while enhancing the Halloween atmosphere. Beyond the in-app experience, I also worked with the marketing team to extend the visual language across social and offline touchpoints.

Take Away

This was a 0-to-1 seasonal project spanning creative strategy, product, and marketing execution, brought to life through close cross-functional collaboration.

One of the most enjoyable parts of the process was exploring how the Halloween visual language could expand beyond the app — into social content, App Store assets, stickers, and even a small interactive light for offline events.

It was rewarding to see people connect with and remember the playful Wanderboat boat character across both digital and physical touchpoints.
