Meet AWARE:

Designed to Make You Think

AWARE is an in-app scavenger hunt that helps you explore the city, discover hidden gems, learn history and safety tips, and sharpen your observation and awareness skills beyond the usual tourist spots


My Approach

Savannah is often celebrated for its Southern charm, but beneath its beauty lies a complex urban environment shaped by social dynamics, neighborhood patterns, and timing.

AWARE reframes how people engage with city safety by shifting away from fear-based messaging and toward curiosity, confidence, and control. By transforming awareness into an interactive experience, AWARE encourages users to explore, observe, and better understand their surroundings in a way that feels both empowering and engaging.


Exploration

I explored visual elements like maps, pins, street grids, and the letter “S” to represent both city structure and safety, focusing on making awareness feel interactive and discovery-driven rather than fear-based.

Direction

I landed on an eye logo integrated with Savannah’s square layout, symbolizing observation and navigation, helping users move through the city with confidence and awareness.
