Letterboxd Redesign
Individual - Web Design Speculative Project - March 2025
I redesigned the Letterboxd website as a speculative project to elevate its interface. This project focused on improving navigation, refining visual hierarchy, and enhancing film discovery. The redesign was created using InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop.
Letterboxd is a platform for film enthusiasts. Its current website design presents challenges in navigation, content organization, and user personalization. My redesign focuses on streamlining the interface and improving search functionality.
By refining the layout and optimizing filters, my design makes it easier to discover films, engage with reviews, and navigate the site effortlessly. The result is a more intuitive and visually cohesive experience that better serves both casual viewers and dedicated cinephiles.

Drawing inspiration from warm, nostalgic hues of classic movie theaters, I incorporated a rich palette of yellow, orange, and deep purple into my Letterboxd redesign. These colors create a cinematic atmosphere that enhances the user experience, making film discovery feel more immersive.
