Food marketplace brand and detail-page design — hero mockup
Overview

What the project was

I built the branding and visual system for a Korean food marketplace from the ground up. Because customers were buying food online, trust was the core design challenge. The brand had to communicate quality, origin, and reliability before anyone could taste the product.

Approach

How I worked

01

Brand foundation

Defined the visual identity that would carry quality and credibility across every touchpoint.

02

Visual language

Built the typography, imagery, and layout system that keeps the marketplace consistent.

03

E-commerce experience

Extended the identity into the store itself, from navigation to product listings.

04

Product detail pages

Gave each product enough distinction to tell its own story, within one consistent system.

Highlights

Pages that lead with the food, finish with the cart.

Squid-stir-fry detail page leading with the food, then the story
갑오징어볶음 detail page: the dish framed by hand-styled Korean typography and copy that sells the taste, not a spec list.
Soy-marinated crab detail page emphasising origin and craft
간장게장 detail page: domestic crab and house-made soy marinade, with the food shown from multiple angles.
Prawn detail page with appetite-led typography over the dish
대하장 detail page: plump domestic prawns over rice, the brand name set as the visual anchor.
Honest product detail page with no fillers, just the ingredient and the promise
Selling with honesty: no fillers, just the ingredient and the promise behind it.
Gunsan crab detail page using regional identity as a trust signal
Regional identity as a trust signal: Gunsan crab, caught where the river meets the sea.
Reflection

What I took away

What I'm most proud of is working across the full visual experience, from the brand foundation to the final product pages. Design here wasn't only about making the food look appealing. It was about making the marketplace feel credible enough to buy from.
