About:

bday is an app for birthday reminders built on the lunar calendar and the symbolism of Chinese culture. In place of a utilitarian notification, each date draws on ideas of prosperity, renewal, and family ties to become a gesture of celebration. I led the visual identity and interface, from art direction to final screens.
