SciVite

Translates institutional direction into a consistent visual and interaction system within a structured, collaborative environment.

My Role in the System

Operated within a large, cross-functional team responsible for developing a client-facing interactive experience for WSU Vancouver’s Life Sciences Building.

Contributed to the visual system through asset creation and visual refinement, supporting consistency across imagery, layout, and presentation patterns within a shared design environment.

System Overview

The project was structured as a multi-team system with defined roles, approval stages, and shared ownership across design, development, and content.

Work progressed through a coordinated pipeline, requiring alignment between visual, interactive, and institutional requirements to maintain consistency across the experience.

Approach

Work was guided by predefined principles and structured feedback cycles, requiring ongoing alignment with both team direction and institutional constraints.

Visual decisions were shaped through iteration and refinement, translating abstract guidance into concrete patterns that could be applied consistently across the system.

Project Goals

The system maintains consistency across visual and interactive elements while supporting institutional communication and recruitment objectives.

It ensures that content, imagery, and interaction patterns align within a shared structure, preserving clarity across a complex, multi-contributor environment.

Project Highlights

• Contribution to a shared visual system within a large, cross-functional team

• Translation of abstract direction into consistent imagery and layout patterns

• Alignment of visual output with structured approval and feedback processes

• Support of a coordinated design pipeline across multiple contributors

Process
