01
Challenge











Our task was to introduce a new shopping experience where users begin with creative prompts instead of traditional searches. A key challenge was helping users understand that their input—guided by AI—would lead to real, tangible products designed by them and crafted by artisans.













02
Solution












Taking inspiration from the archways of historic Arcade galleries, we integrated this iconic shape into the logo, symbolizing the connection between Arcade’s past and its forward-thinking future.

To distinguish Arcade from typical AI image-generation platforms, we infused the brand with rich materials and textures. Drawing on natural elements such as clay, mud, and sand, we combined these with neon colors and rainbow gradients, adding an AI-enhanced, magical touch. This blend of organic and futuristic elements forms a unique brand identity, setting Arcade apart with a visual aesthetic that feels both real and innovative.
