UX & Interaction Design | Design Systems | Branding

While working at Neue Zürcher Zeitung ↗ in Zürich, I helped redesign their Sunday Edition and build a shared design system across the flagship and partner products. In less than 6 months we were able to launch the all-new responsive website for NZZ am Sonntag (translated: on Sunday). This was quickly followed by updates to the flagship NZZ homepage and article reading experience.
