Problem Statement

Redesigned a cybersecurity dashboard for SOC analysts to monitor threats, investigate incidents, and visualize impact metrics like ROI and time saved. The interface focused on clarity, drill-down functionality, and actionable data visualization.

Willow Studio has completely transformed the way we present our brand. Their team’s creativity, professionalism, and deep understanding of design made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. From the initial concept to the final execution, every detail was thoughtfully crafted to align with our vision. The end result was beyond our expectations—visually stunning, highly functional, and perfectly tailored to our needs.

Approach & Research Style

By addressing these challenges head-on, we empower brands to elevate their presence, build stronger connections, and achieve their creative vision with confidence.

In today’s fast-paced digital world, standing out as a creative studio is more challenging than ever. Many brands struggle with outdated designs, inconsistent branding, and a lack of compelling storytelling that truly connects with their audience. Without a strong visual identity and seamless user experience, potential clients lose interest, leading to missed opportunities and decreased engagement. Additionally, many creative studios face difficulties in balancing aesthetics with functionality, often resulting in visually appealing but impractical solutions. Willow Studio was conceived to bridge this gap by providing innovative, high-quality design solutions that not only look stunning but also drive real impact. We understand the importance of storytelling, strategic branding, and immersive experiences that leave a lasting impression.

01
Exploration was non-linear

Users moved freely between spaces, often circling back rather than progressing step by step

02
Emotional Engagement

Visitors were drawn to tactile experiences, rope, pottery, weaving, which slowed down their pace.

03
Cultural Knowledge

Most users lacked historical context and needed visual storytelling to feel connected and informed.

Designing the Structure

Instead of building flat menu items, I created a structure that reflects zones of experience.

Each cultural space became a primary section in the navigation, just as it is in real life. This allowed users to visually and intuitively enter the heritage story from whichever point captured their interest.

Starting with sticky notes that captured user needs, cultural cues, and experience goals, then evolving into a zone-based information architecture that mirrors how people naturally move through the Heritage Village

Ideations

Sketching out how culture could feel on a screen.

This phase was where I began translating everything I’d learned, the cultural rhythm, the emotional pacing, the way people moved through the Heritage Village into early design concepts. Instead of starting with polished visuals, I kept it intentionally rough and open-ended using low-fidelity mockups.

Each wireframe was a way to test an idea quickly:

  • What if users could scroll through the site like they’d walk through the Village?

  • How could zones feel distinct, but still part of one shared story?

  • Could I let visuals and layout carry cultural meaning, without overwhelming the interface?

These sketches helped me define the structure, layout rhythm, and key content blocks. They weren’t about visual perfection , they were about translating place and pace into a web experience.

Visual Identity

Bringing heritage to life through soft, grounded design choices

The visual language of Stories in Sand was inspired by the textures, tones, and emotional quiet of the Dubai Heritage Village. Every visual decision from color to typography, was made to reflect a sense of place that feels calm, grounded, and respectful of culture.

Final Mockups

From research to rhythm, a digital space that feels like the real one.

These high-fidelity screens combine cultural insight with calm design. Each page invites exploration through soft tones, intuitive structure, and immersive imagery reflecting the quiet, open rhythm of the Heritage Village itself.

High-fidelity mockups showcasing key design decisions, from visual storytelling and cultural tone to content flow and user-centered structure.

From Research to Resonance

Through 12+ hours of cultural research and 3 rounds of design iteration, I learned how to translate real-world emotion into digital rhythm. Crafting 6 high-fidelity screens taught me to balance storytelling with structure and design not just for users, but for meaning.
