Embark on a visual journey that brings Ernest Hemingway's iconic six-word flash fiction, "For sale: baby shoes, never worn," to life. Using hierarchy and composition, this project transforms Hemingway's evocative quote into three distinct UX/UI designs that paint a picture as vivid as Hemingway's own words.

Splash Screen

A Journey through the Written Word:

The first interpretation, a splash screen for a literary app, leverages the simplicity of typography to highlight the melancholy tone of the quote. The poignant image of a little girl lifted by a red balloon represents hope and growth, seamlessly capturing the spirit of Hemingway's words.

E-Commerce UI

An Unconventional Storytelling

The second design, an e-commerce UI, uses the quote as its centerpiece, displacing conventional headings, navigation, and CTAs. The prominent quote, visible yet elusive, invites the viewer to delve deeper, to experience the narrative behind the item for sale. The design humanizes the digital e-commerce space, compelling viewers to empathize with the seller and their story.

App-Style Illustration

An Abstract Perspective

The final piece, an app-style illustration, offers a bold and abstract take on the quote. The illustration tells a story of the shoe box with meticulous attention to hierarchy and composition, guiding the viewer's eye in the correct reading order.

Through the lens of user experience design, this project redefines storytelling, transforming Hemingway's iconic quote into striking visual narratives. Each design, from the wistful splash screen and thought-provoking e-commerce UI to the bold app-style illustration, encapsulates the power of perspective and design to evoke emotion and narrate a story in unexpected ways. This visual exploration of Hemingway's quote serves as a testament to the profound impact of storytelling, when coupled with innovative design.
