Trvlpage, a travel social media app, approached the Onix team seeking a transformation of their existing app.
The client's challenge was clear: create a trendy and clean social travel app design that fosters authentic content and a sense of community.
Trvlpage aimed to be a space where users could effortlessly share travel pictures and reviews without the need for filters and where recommendations would be honest and straightforward.
The key differentiator was the advice from a user's network of trusted individuals.
Despite having an existing app, Trvlpage desired a comprehensive overhaul, including rebranding and improvements to UX and UI.
The Onix team was responsible for:
Conducting a thorough analysis of Trvlpage's goals and user expectations
Developing a new logo and branding strategy that reflected the desired image of a trendy, clean, and community-oriented platform
Creating an improved user flow based on customer wishes and insights from competitor research
Designing a landing page that encapsulated Trvlpage's brand personality – enthusiastic, community-oriented, authentic, helpful, and reliable

Understanding the user journey
To comprehensively address the user journey for Trvlpage, the Onix team meticulously examined the existing app's flow, conducting a thorough audit to identify pain points and enhance navigation.
Simultaneously, we delved into user feedback, extracting valuable insights to understand their experiences and expectations. This process aimed to eliminate bottlenecks and enhance user convenience, laying the foundation for a more intuitive and user-friendly Trvlpage.
Conducting competitive analysis
We thoroughly analyzed industry competitors, studying their strategies to engage users before and after their travel experiences. This involved analyzing features, user interfaces, and community-building aspects.
The goal was to create a platform that met and surpassed industry standards, offering users a distinctive and compelling experience.
Wireframing and prototyping
We developed high-fidelity wireframes reflecting improved user flow based on customer wishes and competitive research. These wireframes served as a blueprint for the app's structure, outlining the placement of critical features and the overall navigation.
Additionally, we created a clickable prototype that allowed stakeholders to visualize and interact with the proposed design, providing a tangible sense of the user experience. This process was instrumental in validating our design decisions and aligning the final product with Trvlpage's vision.
Branding overhaul
Beginning with a comprehensive analysis of Trvlpage's objectives and user expectations, we crafted a new logo and branding strategy that captures the essence of a stylish, uncluttered, and community-centric platform. The design process involved carefully considering color schemes, typography, and visual elements to evoke enthusiasm, friendliness, and authenticity.
This new branding was consistently applied across all design elements, ensuring a cohesive visual identity. The branding overhaul not only refreshed Trvlpage's visual appearance. It was pivotal in shaping Trvlpage's image, reinforcing its unique personality in the competitive landscape.
Cohesive visual identity
The application is centered around the theme of tourism. As such, we have incorporated green, yellow, and orange colors that resonate with the vibrancy and energy of the tourism sphere.
Additionally, pastel tones have been carefully chosen to accentuate warm relationships and foster a sense of mutual understanding. Pastels' soft and soothing nature complements the app's focus on creating a welcoming and harmonious environment for users, enhancing the overall experience of exploring and engaging with the world of travel.
Landing page design
In line with establishing a stylish, clean, and community-centric platform, we crafted a landing page to act as an engaging introduction for users.
The enthusiastic and friendly brand personality was carefully infused into the layout, emphasizing authenticity, helpfulness, and reliability. The landing page seamlessly integrates with the app design, ensuring a cohesive user experience. We carefully selected visuals, color schemes, and engaging content to reflect Trvlpage's identity and encourage user engagement.
