Overview
Background
Memoir is a startup building the first accessible photo library app for visually impaired users. I led the ground-up branding and visual identity, shaping a cohesive system that informed the pitch deck and social media presence. I iterated through multiple directions with the founders and my team to develop a braille-inspired logo and scalable brand assets that supported investor storytelling, early marketing, and long-term product growth. The challenge was to create a visual system that balanced warmth and upliftment with the polish expected from a tech-driven product.
Challenge
How might we build a brand identity rooted in accessibility so that visually impaired users feel seen and investors trust the product’s innovation for a scalable, tech-forward startup?
Concept
Solution
A braille-inspired “M” logo paired with a vibrant teal-blue and orange palette, forming a flexible identity system that supported storytelling, product vision, and early marketing.

Process
Design Process
I collaborated closely with the founders and PM to explore multiple visual directions before refining the logo, typography, and color palette. The process involved iterative exploration and testing what felt right for the Memoir’s mission while maintaining visual clarity. I continuously refined based on readability, tone, and long-term scalability.
