Project Description

Arena is a streaming platform focused on esports and interactive content. I was responsible for defining its brand identity and user experience, building a bold, scalable design system that established Arena as a standout player in the industry. This included creating a comprehensive visual identity, designing the user interface, and developing high-fidelity product visuals that enhanced engagement and usability.

In addition to shaping the core brand system, I designed an investor pitch deck that effectively communicated Arena’s vision, helping to secure early-stage funding. The platform’s UI/UX design was carefully crafted to balance functionality and immersive engagement, ensuring a seamless experience for both streamers and audiences. Through strategic brand positioning, digital design, and interactive storytelling, I helped Arena build a compelling visual foundation that could scale with its growth.
