In my BA project I decided to explore the problem of
unauthorized sharing of educational material – a widespread
practice where students share purchased or borrowed textbooks
as PDFs, undermining publishers and authors alike.

Derived from the goal of
offering access, these were the
brand values that shaped the
design decisions along the way.

The single-story / "schoolbook"-a
is meant to reference hand-written notes.

Letting the 'l' "fall over" like a book
gave the wordmark a playful touch.

To also address the problem
of students illegally uploading
copyrighted content to LLM's,
my idea was to weave an AI
studying assistent into the workflows of the app.

Mark,
note,
quote

Ask when
in doubt

Generate
a quiz

Access
anywhere,
anytime

Pay only
for the books
you need

Eventually, I was able to present
a rather convincing prototype
as
a PWA (Progressive Web App)
with API calls mimicking
the AI
functionality as I had imagined it.
