Lucid Software 〰️ Canvas cursors brand marketing design system
Objective:
The goal was to resolve the inconsistency between the outdated cursor design in our brand assets and the new cursor implemented in the product software. This update aimed to ensure a cohesive brand experience and provide a standardized resource for other Brand Creatives.
Problem:
Our brand team discovered a discrepancy between the new cursor design implemented in the product software and the outdated cursor featured in our brand assets. This inconsistency could lead to confusion and a fragmented brand experience.

I worked closely with our Creative Director to develop a set of branded cursor components that would ensure consistency across all touchpoints and serve as a valuable resource for other Brand Creatives.
