As a designer, I frequently run up against the problem of where to store my inspiration—the creatives, images, videos, books, podcasts, and more that fuel my own creativity. I've tried notebooks, Word files, Notion, Pinterest, Miro, and more, but still have yet to find a solution that combines a robust database with a visual-first approach. This unsuccessful hunt led me to the idea for Clio—a personal visual knowledge base for designers, artists, and creatives.

I led the design of the brand identity for Clio. My goal was to evoke the spirit of a cozy, creative flow state. Drawing inspiration from scenes of retro creative chaos, I developed a cohesive brand system, designed a landing page, and created wireframes and illustrations for a concept pitch deck.
