YouNoodle is a place for students and young entrepreneurs to share what they’re working on, discover new ideas and connect with likeminded people.

Student projects have played an important role in some of the world’s most important intellectual movements, from Google to Lord of the Rings, and YouNoodle aims at making these kind of collaborations easier.

I have designed the site’s interface around one key element – the user and his or her projects – at the same time providing a stylish and modern platform for the content to flourish. The design reflects the progressive and dynamic nature of the project while also providing the elegance and stylish feeling of academic endeavors.

An overall bold visual identity helps YouNoodle stand out from the crowd and better identify with its audience.
