01
Context
Google Drive is Google's cloud storage. Files, folders and documents live in one place, can be shared with a link and stay in sync across every device.
A self-initiated concept. Everybody uses Drive and nobody thinks about it. That's exactly the challenge: make its simplest actions feel good, without adding anything that isn't in the product.

Key design moments
Moment 01
White space as the design
Drive's interface is almost entirely white. Instead of fighting that with colour and flash, I leaned into it: every dialog gets room to breathe, and the empty space frames each action.
Moment 02
Three everyday moments, one story
Create a folder, share it, get the notification on your phone. Three actions everyone knows, strung into one small story from desk to pocket, so the message (your files, anytime, anywhere) never has to be spelled out.
04
Impact
A concept, so no campaign numbers. It shows that restraint sells: a tool nobody thinks about, made to feel premium with nothing but the product's own interface.
05
Reflections
The less there is on screen, the more every easing curve shows. The simple UI made me polish timing harder than in any busy scene.
