Go-to-market across platform, people, places and spaces

A historically disjointed visual identity stifled much of the site's old content, brand voice, and UX. With a newly defined visual ID, brand positioning and collateral we wanted to ensure brand continuity would flow across our double-sided platform (Host and Guest experiences).

From local pre press to global press coverage

I saw an opportunity to take the annual PDF of trends in the travel industry and transform it into a coffee table book as a leave-behind for our PR teams. What used to be a static asset became a sleek talking piece, helping to solidify confidence and relevance in our new Vrbo brand positioning to potential partners like Lonely Planet and Travel Magazine.

Brand & Motion Guidelines

While the primary goal was to launch the Vrbo rebrand. A historically disjointed visual identity stifled much of the site's old content, brand voice, and UX. With a newly defined visual ID, brand positioning and collateral we wanted to ensure brand continuity would flow across channels and inside our double-sided platform (Host and Guest experiences).

Finding a home for illustrative stories

Vrbo's new brand language flowed into the website and product platform giving a strong sense of movement and color to the updated brand positioning.

I collaborated across our product organization to design a illustration style that would seamlessly fit into website, product and social channels.

A major rebrand for family travel

By working collaboratively with product, engineering, social + PR and brand strategy partners we delivered a comprehensive brand language. Creating a robust system that led to increased scalability while delivering a cohesive brand in multiple markets across the US and APAC & EMEA.
