Design Tokens
Building a Scalable, Unified Design System
Tasked with creating a more cohesive design language, our three-person team developed and implemented design tokens for HPE’s Design System. These tokens standardized key UI properties—like color, typography, and spacing—across products, enabling better collaboration between designers and developers and elevating the overall user experience.

Data Visualization Colors
Creating Accessible, Data-Driven Color Solutions
To enhance data visualization across HPE’s enterprise products, we developed three custom color palettes—qualitative, diverging, and sequential. Each palette was designed to meet WCAG accessibility standards and achieve a 3:1 contrast ratio, ensuring clarity and inclusivity for all users while maintaining visual consistency across platforms.

Dynamic Visual Storytelling
Created a high-impact animated loop video for the Mercedes F1 team, displayed in racer tunnels at the Monaco Grand Prix. The animation captured the brand’s precision and energy, enhancing the event’s immersive experience and leaving a lasting impression on an international audience.
