Context
Fonos is one of Vietnam's most popular audiobook and podcast platforms. This redesign project reimagined the app's visual experience while maintaining familiar navigation patterns that existing users rely on.
Approach
Rather than reinventing the product, focused on elevating visual quality while preserving information architecture, creating a cohesive design language across light and dark modes, and improving content discovery and subscription clarity. Designed 20+ unique screens including onboarding, authentication, home feed, library, search, subscription plans, settings, and error states.
Design System
Light mode uses a clean, warm palette with coral/peach accents and white backgrounds with subtle shadows. Dark mode features a deep purple/navy base with matching coral accents, not a simple color inversion but individually tuned components for contrast and readability. Created a custom chibi/anime mascot character for onboarding, adding personality and brand differentiation.
Outcome
Produced a complete redesign covering 20+ unique screens × 2 themes = 40+ screen variants. The project demonstrates the ability to work within existing product constraints while delivering meaningful visual improvement — redesign thinking that improves without breaking.
