Visual Identity

RIPPLE is a responsive, experimental news platform that divides information into section pieces.

Like the documentary, the book is an an exploration of the color and its history. Blue has carried associations with divinity, exoticism, and the infinite, and the book traces its journey in Western art — from the arrival of lapis lazuli in medieval Europe, to its role in Renaissance masterpieces, to its reimagining in modern art and its ultimate connection to Earth.

The Book

This project began as a specialty publication exploring the cultural and artistic significance of the color blue, inspired by the BBC documentary History of Art in Three Colors.

Overview

Structured around the metaphor of a ripple effect, each news story is broken into three digestible sections: Drop (where it started), Ripple (how it unfolded), and Wave (its current impact).

Onboarding

Ripple uses a modular, card-based article system that allows readers to navigate news in a timeline format — sliding between Drop (origin), Ripple (developments), and Wave (current impact).

The concept works around the idea of allowing users to understand world-wide events in a unique timeline format.

Sliding between cards makes reading feel active and story-driven, instead of passive scrolling.
