Everlend — DeFi lending & yield protocol on Solana
A decentralized yield and credit aggregator built on Solana — spun out of Everstake. Raised $2.6M, shipped a full product, didn't survive the 2022-2023 bear market. That's crypto. Redesigned the homepage, rebuilt the web app, and extended the existing branding throughout.

Joined as founding designer with only a generic brandbook to start from. Extended it with custom 3D elements built on top of the core logo — giving the brand something visually distinctive to own. Worked across the landing page, web app, video explainer, and Twitter collateral. This was also where my minimalist style for explainer videos started to take shape — a direction I kept developing for years after.

Full video explainer — done everything except 3D and sound design.


Toward the end I started exploring NFTs for the community — I already had relevant experience on Solana, so it made sense to push it further. All built in Figma from scratch, piece by piece like puzzles.
